Could anybody tell me to release the bonnet on a 2001 Punto? The bonnet
release wire has broken, pulling from inside of the car just pulls the wire
out of the inner cable. I can just see some of the mechanism by squinting up
through the gap in the front bumper and could probably get a long thin
screwdriver in. Advice would be appreciated,

regards,

David

Finally managed to release the bonnet, was fairly straightforward. Now
all I need to do is obtain a new cable.
