Battery is dead and I was able to get into the trunk of my Vert, but where is the cord to pull to unlatch my door so I can pop the hood? Thanks in advance.

The cord is located on the side wall of the rear tub just to the rear of the driver's side wheel well hump. If you don't see a plastic tab (you should actually see two, door pull release and fuel door release) there, feel around a look for a slit in the carpet as the pull tab for the cable may have ended up tucked back in under the carpet.

You can see them in this photo from my car.

You're welcome. I've gone back and edited the post above to include a photo of the pull tabs in my car to make it easier to find them.

Just got back inside and you were correct, the pull tab was inside the carpet. Once we got it the door popped right open and it is now charging. Thanks again.
