A long screw driver through the grill works on HQ's . . . You'll need a torch.
The part that gets pulled by the cable, you can usually push it sideways with something. |

if rig pig suggestion doesnt work try going up from under the bar there should be a gap you should be able to get to the catch from there and lever the catch from there

i just stick a long screw diver through the grill and push the catch across
could you grab the left over end of the cable with pliers and pull it?

in a HJ HX HZ the grill holes can be damaged easily using a driver, the best method is from inder neath the bumper, having long thin arms help... |
