hood pop spring?
I'm not sure what the correct name for this part is. its the spring that pushes up the hood when you pull the release lever. It dawned on me yesterday that it was missing even though I have been complaining about how hard it is to open the hood for a year. what is the name of this part so I can locate it. anyone have a pic of it installed on their car?

It's a blizzard outside so I don't wanna go take a picture, but it connects to the hood. Called a "Hood Latch Spring". Somebody else may have picture..

okay I found a picture. I'm surprised its actually just a spring. most of the vehicle safety latches have a few pieces to them but this is just a free standing spring. okay this shouldn't be too hard to find.
