Default Question

I drive a C5, so I do not know the answer, but this was posted on the Corvette Facebook page
My c6 corvette convertible had dead battery.. I tries to open the driver door to pop the hood to recharge my battery but since there is no power... My window won't pull down to let the door loose. Is there any other way to get in to pop the hood open?
Right now there is an idiot on the page that is pushing how great the Dodge Chargers are and giving this guy a hard time. Thought I would see if I could help him out.

The C6 driver should have a key. The key goes into a key hole located just above the rear license plate. This will pop open the rear hatch/trunk. Once the rear hatch/trunk is open, look inside to the left (driver side) and there is a tab that will open the driver's door.
