A so-call friend took my radiator to have fix. Took two days, so I asked him to drop it of and I would put it back. I figure it would be easy. I put it back and everything look like it's suppose to, but now I can't open the hood. What did I do and is there a way to open the hood from the outside. I still haven't learn. I make things worst than they were. Thank You

There isn't a release on the outside for the hood. See if you can reach the latch with a long screwdriver to open it. If you can't, you will need to have a body shop open it.

You may be able to get it from the bottom up. Look underneath and see. If not, take it to a shop and let them fix it

by the way, why are you mad at your friend? 2 days is not bad nor is it his fault it took so long, we do the same thing.
