Look in the wiper bay. You'll see a plastic plug about the size of a quarter on the upper portion of the bulkhead. Pop the plug out, insert a screwdriver and push on the hood release. I know it's not real easy to see with the hood closed, so you may need a mirror to have a good look at the plug. It's location is, again, toward the top of the bulkhead right near the fender lip.

There was recently a link on this forum to an article on the Mid-America website with step by step instructions and pictures. It's the same idea as above with more detail.
