Is cutting bonnet pin with hacksaw the only option and is that the advice people are PM'ed with ?

If so a few questions,
Quote:
a) how do you get the grill off
You can remove the grill if you can just about wedge the bonnet open, by removing the two scivets with a flat blade not easy.

Quote:
b) whats parts do you need to replace
The cable 99.9% of the time.

Quote:
c) is it easy to install new cable once the bonnet is only ?
Not that easy as you have to remove the front bumper, the slam panel along with the lights, then replace the cables once the slam panel is off the car.
