Re: broken release cable
You will have to use a screwdriver to "push" on the release spring. There is a piece of thick "wire" that is inside the hood latch mechanism. You can see it looking between the hood and grill. you will have to push this "wire" with a screwdriver.
Edit: Here is a picture of what I explained above. Press the screwdriver against the release and push.
