dam! That sounds like a tough one. Not something I would want to find the answer of on the internet though, or to see it posted up on here.
I would take it to a few mechanics and even to Honda to ask them how to get it fixed.

this is exactly right, gotta get a hold of the cable close to the latch, and yank on it to pop the latch.
