Bonnet won't release

[Louis]

Just fitted a new bonnet and thought everything was aligned. Closed it down and it latched but now it won't unlatch from the inside.

How do I get it open? I got my gf to hold the latch and I tried pulling it but it's going nowhere.

Is it safe to drive even though it won't unlatch from the inside? Do not want it coming up on me.

Managed to get it open and I played with the hinges and now it opens on the latch. Kind of worried about it flying open on me now though

There`s no reason it should if the arm is lubed and moves freely.

All seems fine. Just sprayed in some wd and worked with with a screwdriver. Everything on the bonnet is also greased up now.
