There should be a release cable under one of the headlights. You need to use something to fish it out. If you do a search at renntech.org you will find it.

It was there!..... there is a small cable on the passenger side .....I was able to reach mine from the bottom.... there's an opening large enough to eachyour hand in and grab the cable.Had to jackup the car and use a flash lite to see it.

thanks,
Function12 and Doc
