W210 E420 Hood Vertical position
Hey guys any of you know if you can put a W210 hood in the upright position, if so how do you do it? I have scoured many of the forums but cant seem to find the DIY on a W210- any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

You have a latch on each side, so if you don't have partner, figure out which one unlatch first, disengage it, then go on other side and unlatch other side to push hood vertically.
Also sometimes latches are under pressure, so you need to push the hood slightly to take the tension off the locks.

I believe yours is all done from the passenger side hinge. Raise the hood. Go to the passenger hinge and push back on the latch to allow it to go vertical. Mine has a "push here" label on it.
