Thumbs down Greaaaaaaaat. Hood release cable broke! How do I open?!

Not a good day at all... is there some secret emergency way to pop my hood?

If you are lucky

Most hood release cables break at the handle. Clamp vice grips on the wire and pull.

Thumbs down

Problem is... no wire in there. I seemed to tear from further up and it's gone.

Did some tests on my SD, and have some pics for you on opening the hood, but don't really want them spread around, so private message me and I'll send you them...
