OK, so I've read a bunch of threads on this already and they don't seem to help me out because they ALL say the same thing. Here's the situation:

Dead battery, hood is locked, latch to open hood is locked - no second battery to use to unlock the latch.

I've got a 1997 boxster and I've been trying to find the emergency pull under the passenger's front wheel-well.

Does anyone know what the cable actually looks like (I'm still working on getting the liner off without destroying it)? Is there some trick to getting those damn clips out? They certainly are a real ********************...

...And please, before anyone says "Look in the manual" could you tell me what page to look on - I've tried them all.

Thanks
Steve
