Same thing happened to me.

Anyone know how to pop the hood thru the kidneys? I see a latch on the left side and a latch on the right side. I can move the latch on the left, but can't budge the one on the right. What should I be doing here?
Stick long flat head screwdriver through kidney grill or remove kidney grill on drivers side, you will see the spring mechanism, inbetween that is the latch that catches when you drop the hood down you have to push it to the right which will pop the hood
