. when done get a torch and look up between the bumper and radiator towards front of hood .
This can not sound very good to most people here. I know this person means get a FLASH LIGHT in UK talk. A torch in the USA means a flaming device used to heat or burn something.

SO PLEASE DO NOT USE A TORCH AS A FLASH LIGHT.
 
I suppose if a person wanted to and was a bit paranoid about the cable ever breaking the thing to do would to have a wire or what ever connected to where the cable is so you could reach it
and pull it to open the hood. It just would not be fun to have to destroy parts just to open the hood if the cable ever breaks. :)

And stupid me ! You already had a photo of it on page 1.
