ok so i went to open my hood, pulled the latch, heard the click, but the hood didnt pop open as usual. Its done this once before, but it opened by playing with the hood a little. I already know that i need to replace the hood latch, but i still need to get into the hood before i can do that (i also need to put some oil in [stupid head gasket] so i can drive to work). Im thinking i can get to the latch from under the car, but if that doesnt work, then i could pry it somehow...but i dont want to damage the fender or any of the other components...if anyone knows another way...PLEASE let me know...

oh yeah shes an 87 7MGE
