Got a hood problem, very tricky.

I can't get my hood up cause the cable has released itself from inside the engine bay. I've tried taking off the headlights but cant get there. Anyone had the same problem? I need help fast.

You are hateing life!

You can get the hood open by cutting the crap out of the front bumper skin, but first I'd try dropping the underbelly pan, removing the radiator, & trying to get at it from there.

But from what I've heard you have to cut the skin...
