I'd just take it to your nearest SEAT garage, i'm sure they can just advise you on where the actual catch is to do it manually?

That our just take the whole front bumper off and have a fiddle around that way???

take the grill out with the s badge in it, and use a screw driver to open the bonnet, by releasing the mechanism ;)

could be where the cable splits, along the drivers side wing, mine did it before was a bit of a pain
