   Obvs the other day my bonnet flew open and smashed my windscreen.
   Anywhos... After shutting it the other day, I now can no longer open it via pulling the normal Lever.
   
   Any ideas on how to free the SOB!??

   Can you reach through and pull the cable yourself? My saxo has a knackered bonnet from a previous shunt and the pull clip that's usually there isn't there anymore but I can reach through and pull the cable by hand.
