Dont know m8 but try the thread above
stick yer head under where the release latch was, if theres still a bit of wire with a thing on the end whack a pair of pliers on there and pull
cheers for link m8 but still no joy i cant see past the radiator as can only pop 1 of the side grills off any1 else got any ideas
andy
also tried pullin on cable but its stuck fast
whereabouts is the actual release mechanism cos on mine where the safety latch is i can see all of the radiator with no spring mechanism infront of it and from my experience on other car its normally in head banging range

As it definatly come away or just lose...
I kicked mine getting out of the car not long since and it wouldn't pop the bonnet and the handle was loose... i ended up pulling it as hard as i could and it popped it. thought it was going to rip out but it worked...
It was like when i kicked it it just released a little but not enough to pop it - but dont think thats possible so still dont know what really happened...
mines a pain in the warm weather think the cable stretches but it always pops first thing in the morning..........why do black cars attratct the heat so much lol
