cable hook for a 93 civic hood

My hood on my civic sometimes fails to close. I need to mess around with the lock a little bit in order to close it. Took it to a shop they told me it is about an hour and a half worth of labor. Does this sound right? Has anyone had this type of problem? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks

can u tell whats wrong with it at all. mayb it just needs some adjustment

Just buy a new one off ebay.
