Remote Hood Latch

I'm thinking I wanna look into adding a remote hood latch to my '78 Camaro. I do not believe any of the Chevy years or any Pontiac F-Bodies, had this. Before I try to invent something to work, has anybody done something like this? It seems sorta straightforward, until I consider the latch handle and the kick trim piece. I would appreciate hearing of your experiences. Thanks.

I'm sure it can be done. All you need is a solenoid or something to pull the cable. Maybe rig up a remote door popper or something like that.
