Only way AFAIK is to get access behind the grill, may have to break it  :undecided:

On the front remove the grill, might as well snap it, careful not to snap the pull handle that pops out.

There is what looks to be a triangle in the middle with three/two T25 bolts, remove them.

That will allow the bonnet to be released from the catch.

Pull the catch handle you didn't brake and your done.
