I'd done the same thing fitting a new (used) grille and hadn't realised I'd trapped the release strap. I was a whole afternoon trying to open it'. None of the other vids helped at all, some even suggesting I smashed a hole in the grille. Yours was so simple and straightforward I opened the bonnet first time. Thank you so much.
This is a fantastic video, it really saved me today. I fashioned the tool from bits available at a local toolstation, and was able to open my bonnet! Thank you so much.
i have a 2013 Ford Figo which is the Fiesta rebadged, I ended up with the same plastic tab in my hand, thank you so much, you saved me alot of trouble.
Thank god for your video. I got worried because as soon that clip got loose and went out, my headlight went out and i didnt know if it could get fixed without driving to some mechanic and paying for work that was unnessecary.
I'm officially a dick my bro in law has borrowed my fiesta and the bonnet would not open when pressing the pullback plastic tab in the car now only dawning on me forgot there was a plastic pull tab on it lol dear me guess il be using this tool to pry it out cheers lol

Dude, perfect! The realiser was completely broken, but we followed your video and fixed it within one minute. Thank you!
THANK YOU, the plastic tab managed to break off and I had no idea how to open the hood!
