Can anyone help. I put a new boonet catch on my bug closed the bonnet now the thing will not open at all. The button will go in but the bonnet will not budge. Any ideas how I can open it without drilling the handle out. Just got it sprayed so I need it open to wire up the headlights and get my snap-on ratchet out. also needs to gp for an MOT!!!

i done something similar on my old bug, though i was adjusting mine to make it lock. i just gave it a really good yank, broke the lock tab but it opened! good luck mate i wasn't easy.
