Barry White no. These bonnets aint easy to get.
I've been told how to get in, I need to make a tool but the dude just said to look at one an you'd understand how to bend it up.

Went and had a look. Theres a lever that the cable attaches to, pokes out the front of the scuttle panel - pointing dead ahead, you want to push that lever across towards the drivers side headlight, that will release it. Should be reasonably easy to make something connect with the rod with the bonnet shut. it even has a hoop for you to make it easier

Dude, a picture would be amazing! EXplanation was good though! I don't have a lot of room to play with with the grille in tack and the intercooler hard up against it!
