This is the easiest way. You don't have to take off the bumper like other websites tell you. Use a wide blade scraper and gently pry off the grille cover, start at the top edges near the corner area and work your away around the top. The main lips to the grille cover are at the bottom, so pry the top away first.
Once you remove the grille cover, look inside at the top of the hood. You will see three cap nuts that attach the hood hook to the hood. Using a #10 open end wrench (preferably a longer wrench). Two the the caps are easy to get to but the third one in the back is a little tighter and that's why you need a longer wrench.
Remove those three nuts and your hood will open. Then you can make the necessary cable adjustments/repairs as needed.
