Default 401 bonnet mechanism

Can anyone help me to understand how the bonnet locks operate on a 401/403 specifically the routing of the cables which operate the 4 catches themselves. I am in the process of assembling my car and unfortunately I am struggling to figure out how to route the cables. The drivers handbook says pull the knob out on the relevant side but when looking at the locks it would seem I have push the side of the lock to release the locks?

I am also looking for a petrol cap and the latch which unlocks the petrol cap cover and is activated by the push button in the rear arm rest. Does anyone one have spare?

George
