 I need to replace the outer wire which is operated by the latch under the bonnet after opening from the major interior opening lever. I have removed all visible plastic clips but it seems all different plastic parts are well entangled and I would like your help if anyone has removed the center cover piece in order to get access to the lever and wire mechanism...
Do I have to remove the full front end bumper !!!??
So far no violence used...

 Hi, it's me again! I managed to open up enough to see the assembly below the cover. Then I realized the easiest fix would be to insert a new steel wire from the latch and push it into the spiral sleeve which was still in place and OK. After a visit to the local bike dealer and 3£ of merchandise it took me five minutes to replace the wire and add a wirelock.Another five minutes to get all the plastic stuff back - only broke one clip...
Easy peasy.
