Best Answer

The best way is to find a similar vehicle, open the hood on the car that the hood release works on. Then try to figure how the latch mechanism works. The you can fashion a tool to trip the latch. Also, lie down and use a flashlight - look up and see if you can unbolt the latch bar. This works very well on Chevy blazers. You will need a long extension.

If you let us know what type of car you have perhaps we can be of more help.
