#101246, "CRAP!!! I need some help, haha."


          

Fuck me in a goats ass.

I had to remove my hood hinge to slot the holes to get my hood to fit right and when I installed it, I forot to hook up the release cable to it!!! Well, I shut the damn hood last night and now I cant get it back open.

Does anyone know any freaking tricks on how to get the hood back open without the fucking cable?

Gosh damnit.

Probably need to try picking it from underneath... Id study another one real good, then jack the car up and start trying to snake up there.

Ouch, that sucks. I hope you can get it open without causing any damage to the paint. And I'm sorry but I couldn't help but laugh b/c we've all done stupid things before. Nomination for being posted in the most embarrasing moment thread?

Unfortunately I haven't had this problem but I have locked the keys in the car several times. sadly it takes me longer to bend a coathanger to the right shape than it does to get the car open.

Well, between the radiator and the motor happens to be a big ass sc61 turbo in the way! And between the radiator and and bumper, seems to be a big ass intercooler.

Shit on a brick.

I have access to the lever that you pull up on to lift the hood open after it is popped from inside the cab. Anyway you think I could pry on that fucker and it would pop?

Sure, go ahead. I deserve it.

I really fucked up this time damnit.

I just drank a Monster. I going to calm down, get pumped the fuck up, go outside, take 15 minutes and figure it out.

By the time I come back in, I will have the hood open with nothing damaged or broken.

Let the games begin bitch.

Have a friend sit in the cab, pull/hold on the latch from the cab. Either go underneath between the radiator/bumper or lfit up on the hood while your buddy holds the latch from inside.


If its similar to our gas tank lid this should work. I have similar problem with my gas lid but have after i had someone pull the tank lid while I pulled the lever from inside it popped open. Noticed the latch on tank lid was bent so I bent it back prob fixed.

FAIL

reading comprehension > you

the cable isn't connected to the hood latch.

Fuck yea bitches, I got it.

Monster is the shit.

Here is the steps taken:

1. Drink Monster Energy drink.

2. Go to garage and tell the car : "GO FUCK YOURSELF"

3. Dig in your rediculous amount of money spent on tools (since I am an auto tech)

4. Jackpot. You find your most favorite socket... A Snap On 10mm swivel 1/4 socket. Put socket on extension. Put a universal 1/4 wobble on the extension. Feed the extension and socket up over the intercooler and below the top of the front bumper and get that fucker on the bolt. Grab your $400 Matco impact driver. Drive both 10mm nuts off.

5. Lift up hood with latch attatched to it.

6. Walk away and say : "Fuck Yeah bitch."

7. Punch yourself in the nose.

8. Take pics for everyone on 2gnt to laugh at you.

9. Go back outside and IMMEDIATELY attatch release cable and proceed to punch yourself in the nose again.
