Interesting hood feature



After crashing my car, I found an interesting feature on the hood latch.
The center lock had jammed. I saw that there was a wire clip holding the
pivot pin. I pried the clip off and tapped the pin out. Voila! The hood
opens. Maybe it's not such a special thing, but it did help and seemed to
be designed for that purpose.
