Anyone know how to open the hood on a 96GTS with a broken hood latch handle? Mine broke off today with the hood closed. Just had Dan Cragin go through the motor and need to change the oil.

Thanks,

Leonard

The actual release mechanism in the grill or the latch handle under the hood?

I imagine if it's the handle under the hood, that you can get a long screw driver in there and coax up the part that's left or tip the latch itself. Being careful to take precautions and not scratch the hood ofcourse.
