Question:
Is there another way to open my hood of my car, without damaging it? The latch in the inside of my car to pop open the hood does not seem to be working right as I pull on this lever and I do not hear the hood pop open. Confused as I dont want to take it to the dealer. any suggestions are appreciated thank you...

Have someone pull the latch and give the hood a tap in the area where it latches, might need to be adjusted.What is the best way to get a hold of early 80's to early 90's honda keys?
Get a pare of pliers and reach under the car, grasp the release cable with the pliers and pull it back toward the car.The latch for the hood on the inside of the car has a cable that it's attached to it, it may have become disconnected. If you wish perform the repair yourself, I'd advise you purchasing a Chilton's Repair Manual for your specific car. Otherwise you can just take it into the Dealership.

Sometimes the cable breaks causing the problem. If it is broken on the handle end you can pop it out of the backside of the pull handle and get a small pair of pliers or vise grips and pull the cable manually. If it is the latch under the hood you may have to reach up in and try to manipulate it by hand..this isnt much fun. You could also enlist the help of a friend to sit in the car and pull the handle while you try to pop the latch..sometimes the latch gets sticky and you can gently bang on the hood to try and free it.Do you like a Pagani Zonda or a Mclaren F1?
the cable to your hood came unhooked or it broke, probably have to get a new cable, you can open it up by looking underneath the hood you will see where the latch is you should be able to use a screwdriver or pliers to release the latch.What are the specs for the factory cd radio in a 2004 Jeep Rubicon IE Watts?

Something like the latch might be seized up under there. I had a similar issue with an old car of mine.I'd try this first - get a piece of rope and tie it to the hood popper handle in the car, pull it out and then tie the other end to the steering wheel (so it holds it open) then try pulling open your hood manually - you might need a bit of elbow grease, but it should open up. You can obviously just get someone to hold the handle out while you try to pull the hood open as well.
