Detailed Description

Dorman 912-300 is a replacement trunk lid release cable engineered to replace the original cable on select 1995-2001 Chevrolet Cavalier and 1995-2001 Pontiac Sunfire models. If the factory cable has stretched or broken, this part helps restore normal trunk release operation without changing the original release setup.

What It Can Fix

• Intermittent or failed trunk opening from the release handle
• Difficulty opening the trunk from the interior release mechanism
• Loss of normal trunk lid release operation on the listed vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Route the replacement cable along the original path and verify smooth movement before reassembling trim panels. Confirm the trunk release handle and latch mechanism operate freely, since a binding latch can place extra load on the cable.
