Is there any way the bonnet can be opened from the outside without pulling catch inside? My battery on the corsa has gone flat and I have delocked doors and boot If I can open just the bonnet I can pop another battery on and bobs your uncle.........

Oh and before anyone rants on about posting how to steal cars on a public forum - PGTF I just want the bonnet open, not rewire the immob

Cheers

I dont think there is to be honest mate. Think the best thing for you to do is to jack up the car and put one jump lead on the + for the alternator and the other onto a good chassis ground, then try popping the doorsq

Any wire should do it. Just as long as it aint left connected for too long.

Rear number plate light, side indicator, any wire you can see under the car that you think is a live wire.
