My bonnet cabler has snapped and I'm having trouble getting it open using some pliers to grab the end and pull it. Does anyone know another way to get it open without destroying something?
I was thinking of taking my grill out and see if i can do something from there good idea?
Also i got a new cable for it.
Another quick ? my glovebox lock doesn't open i've taken the plastic cover off and the squeezy in bits but i still can't open it that way and it is unlocked should i try to break the circlip i don't want to damage it the glovebx or anything

Thanks in advance for the help

to open the bonnet, if u can get something from underneath to hook on the cable where it connects to the latch, then pull down. it should pop. taking the grill out might b neccessary.
