Broken hood release cable

Ok, I've got a real problem here. I went to pop my hood and when I pulled on the release, the cable broke. To make matters worse, the cable broke about half way up so I can't even get at it from the inside. How on earth am I going to be able to pop the hood? Can I do it from outside through the grill? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

David

You should be able to take the front grill off. With that off you should be able to get the cable or trip the latch.
