I usupect he means in the engine compartment, wherever, not inside the passenger compartment. I'm guessing. Maybe accessable through the grille opening? I dunno, sonds like you know to try this via your old "EG" whatever that is.

Did not know this happened on S2000's, but common on Tigers (I'm lucky, early car w/rod linkage), guys sometimes cut the hood ( ) until it was figured out how to unbolt the hood from its hinges from underneath. Think outside the box!
