:roll: :lol: I've done this as well. Have you got the front panel attached? I didn't have a front panel or grill so managed to avoid embarassment and reach in and pull the release lever by hand. Not sure what to do if you can't reach it :-?

Jack it up safely, use axle stands as well, roll up your sleeves and get on your back
