"Another method is...Inside the top of the driver's front wheel well, just aft of the spring coil mount, is a little rectangular corner in the black plastic shroud that lines the inside of the wheel well. Reach under this, and you will feel a "wire" about 1/8" in diameter. Too thick for an electrical wire (and not in a harness anyway). Tug this cable gently out from behind the shroud and get a good grip on a loop of it. Now pull hard away from the headlight once, and prepare to hear the music of the alarm as the front hood pops open."

OR if you wanna be really BA, take your shirt off, wrap it around your hand and punch out one of your windows. If people are around this makes you look awesome....stupid, but awesome.

A method easier on hand bones and knuckles than the last option is to use an old spark plug (or buy a new cheapie) Hold the spark plug in your fist with the electrode sticking out (the end you would connect to the plug cable ) swing your fist backhand and strike the window as hard as you can with the end of the spark plug. That window will shatter super easy. Lessons from a misspent youth.
