1) glue
2might be able to pull the bumper out, but probably its going to need a new shock on that side.
3) time for all new lines. if one blew, the rest are probably close behind
4) what? how the hell did you break a throttle cable on ice?
5) another how does a speedo cable get damaged on ice? to change it, there's a clip on the transmission end, and another plastic squeezy thing on the back of the instrument cluster. Pull the metal clip on the transmission, and squeeze the plastic thing on the back of the speedo to disengage it. To get the speedo out, you'll have to pull the dash trim around it, and there are a few screws holding the cluster itself in place.


fenders are the same two door to 4 door.

4) what? how the hell did you break a throttle cable on ice?

Maybe he was on and off the gas so frantically (in a an effort to get it under control) that it self destructed.

Or use a chain and a tree / other stationary object...

Can't throttle and speedo cables be had new from most parts houses? No need to pull the cluster just to change the speedo cable; the quick-release clip is more easily reached from underneath.
