this snapped while back and got it open with pliers and changed handle and cable. However went to it today and nothing, new cable at handle end is not snapped and I think its become disconnected or something at the join up beside strut top/wing. Feels like it and can hear rattling sound up there when play with cable. Not seeing any way to get to catches, grille and looks like plastic shroud obscuring them, certainly cant see quick way. What are my options?

to get bonnet open

can you get to cable via arch liner wayor do I need to snap grille off, destroy plastic shrouds etc and go from there, so frustrating, was about to start on discs pads and prop shaft
