Re: [MBZ] How to get hood open

Re: [MBZ] How to get hood open

Remove front bumper to get clear access to lower left side of grill surround, then create the wreck in reverse by pulling straight out on that corner... which releases said left lock Just thinking. On Tue, Sep 12, 2017 at 1:29 PM, Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes < mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote:
