Alfa Romeo 159 - Hood Handle Holder - 60693720

This is a replacement housing for the engine hood handle holder on the Alfa Romeo 159 interior body system, corresponding to OEM 60693720.

Description

The hood release handle holder mounts inside the cabin footwell and secures the primary release lever. Over time, the original factory plastic becomes brittle and cracks due to repeated mechanical stress during engine hood operation.

This replacement part restores the structural integrity of the interior hood release mechanism. It replaces a broken or missing holder, ensuring the lever operates correctly without shifting or binding. The housing is molded to match the factory dimensions exactly.

This unit serves as a direct replacement for OEM 60693720 on the Alfa Romeo 159 chassis.
