gavinvr6 0 Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 ha ha ha. sorry, that happened to me. if u got the grill off u can in theory open the bonnet by using a screw driver and flipping the catch which is bloody hard. or u could do what i done and dremel out the front of the catch box on one side and flip the catch that way, then check the little 'in-line fuse' looking thing on the inside drivers wing. had to hold mine shut with cable ties round it as it kept popping open everytime i tried opening the bonnet. unfortunatly its a terrible design being in 2 parts coz that little bit is a real weak spot, do a search for bonnet cable or bonnet catch and im sure u will find lots of stories on how people opened theirs Link to post Share on other sites
Bobtrude 0 Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 I made a hook at the tip of a wire. . . . got it into the lock housing from the side and then I just tried and tried and tried for 30 min. . You have to get the hook to attach on the lover part of the lock. Good luck Link to post Share on other sites
