Just need location of the inside release for the hood on a 1994 toyota camry
SOURCE: Toyota Camry fuse box location
It locates behind the coin box ( left , below steering whell ). You have to replace the coin box, just pull it out sofly. =)
SOURCE: need to replace the thermostat in a 1994 Toyota Camry
1. Look up along the lower radiator hose. It will plug into a metal
tube on the engine side. Follow the metal tube. It goes to a housing.
The housing is kind of buried in the driver's side of the engine. There
are 2 smaller coolant tubes plugged in above it. You do not need to
touch those, although it looks at first glance like you do.
2. Disconnect lower radiator hose at the metal tube.
3. Disconnect fan switches 1 and 2. These are on elecrtical harnesses going to this housing.
4. Disconnect a sensor on the front of the engine, just above
the lower hose. I believe this is the knock sensor, but I'm not sure.
5. Now for the fun part. There are 3 bolts holding this housing
on. You can see one at the top. There are 2 others underneath it, such
that the bolts form a triangle pattern. You will have to get the bottom
2 out by feel (blind). They are 10mm.
6. Also, if you look to the front of the housing, you will note
another 10mm bolt on the front holding down a black plastic leg. This
is a wiring harness duct. Remove that bolt. Trace back along the duct.
There is one more bolt on the driver's side retaining the duct. There
is also one on the back of the engine at the firewall / driver's side.
Remove these 2 as well.
7. There is a 12mm bolt holding the metal tube from that housing to the driver's side. Remove that bolt.
8. Gently pry the plastic wiring duct toward driver's side, and
back toward firewall. You have just enough to get it off of the stud on
the thermostat housing.
9. Now you can pull the housing. It will not come all the way
out. It will come loose enough to give you just enough clearance to
remove the thermostat (barely). Once you remove the thermostat, you
have to pass it downward and toward the firewall to fumble it out.
By the way, you will notice that the metal tube is kind of wiggly in the thermostat housiung. This is normal.
10. Pass the new thermostat in the same way you got the old one
out. Make sure when you plug it in that it has an air bleed poppet, and
that this poppet is facing up.
11. Reassemble by reversing removal. Getting the nuts / bolts back in blind is... fun...
I don't know the torque spec. You can get a torqure wrench in
there barely if you get creative with extensions, knuckles, etc. I
wouldn't go abouve 8-10 ft-lb.

There is a rachet right below the hood that you can reach from radiator grill.
Take a long thin screw driver, reach it and turn that rachet.
You will hear the "click" sound and the hood will pop open.
