Hi guys,
I opened the hood this morning and then turned my back on the engine when I heard a "Twang!". It sounded like a spring flew away or something. Anyway, I finished up in the engine and closed the hood. When I moved the car I found a small spring and some pieces of plastic. Now, the hood will not open on the drivers side.
Did something fly apart that allows it to open? How can I open and repair!?!?!

Thanks,
Jeremy

    Have someone press down on the hood while you pull the release. Then adjust pointy rod thingy with wrench to loosen.
