An integrated door latch assembly of a sliding door may include a plate installed at the lower front of the sliding door, a front latch part which is installed in the front of the plate, and a hold open latch part which is installed at the plate so as to be spaced apart from the front latch part to the rear of the vehicle. The front latch part maintains the closed state of the sliding door by restraining a close striker formed at a vehicle body when the sliding door is closed and releases the restriction of the close striker when the sliding door starts to open. The hold open latch part maintains the open state by restraining the sliding of the sliding door when the sliding door is opened and releases the restriction so that the sliding door can slide.

A vehicle door includes an actuator for operating a latching mechanism. An actuator cable extends between the actuator and the latching mechanism. A cable housing slidably receives the actuator cable. The actuator cable is operable within the cable housing between extended and retracted positions. A cable bracket secures the cable housing to a frame member in a secured position. A clip assembly attaches to the cable housing and slidably engages the actuator cable upon operation of the actuator. The clip assembly engages the cable housing at a first side of the cable bracket and engages the actuator cable at a second side of the cable bracket.

A motor vehicle closing device having a locking mechanism with a catch; at least one pawl, said catch being latchable in at least one latching position by means of the pawl; a lock holder, wherein the lock holder can be brought into engagement with the catch by means of a relative movement between the closing device and the lock holder, and the locking mechanism can be converted into a latching position; and means for locking the lock holder in a main latching position of the locking mechanism. According to the invention, a holding device is provided. The holding device is used to convert a vehicle part which interacts with the motor vehicle closing device from a closed position into an open position, and the holding device forms at least one part of the means for locking the lock holder.

An embodiment front lid latch apparatus for a vehicle includes a pawl lever movable between an engaging position and a disengaging position by a first actuator, a latch lever assembly movable between a first hold position and a first releasable position by a movement of the pawl lever, a safety lever movable between a second hold position and a second releasable position by a second actuator, and an emergency lever operatively connected to the pawl lever and the safety lever, and movable between a first position and a second position by a manually operable emergency release cable.
