The only  way I could get the hood opened was to put the car up 
on a lift, remove  the driver's side tire and disconnect the brake 
master cylinder from the  firewall to get room and push out the rubber 
brake fill plug. Since I have  the masonite board under my carpet it a 
bit acquired to move it out of the  way.
 
I've never had to do this, so I appreciate Rick's experience. This is the  
first I recall anyone describing the procedure from experience. 
Let me just add that if you go by the picture in the manual, it looks like  
you poke a wire straight up. That's just because of the angle of the  
illustration, which leaves a lot to be desired. Since you're reaching to the  middle 
from the driver side, naturally you're reaching in at a steep  angle.
