Look under the hood to the passenger side. You will notice where the cable
goes in, using a needle nose or other long nosed pliers, pull the cable and
it should open.

If the cable fell out of it's holder or broke then use a long
screwdriver and pry over on the latch thru the grille, push down on
hood a bit to ease tension, careful not to bend the grille.
