After doing a search, I found this to be a common problem, but no direct answer, specifically for me, since I have a Bravada front grill.

My hood latch cable broke, and now I need to get the hood open to replace it, but can't figure out the best way of doing it. And before someone says to tug on the grill, it' won't budge. It's bolted on from the inside. I need a sure fire method of poping the hood.

 

So, wild guess, I'm on my own in this one.

 

needle nose pliers, a light, lot of patience?
