ok ok this is what you do! you take you keys go around the car on the outside of the door right?? following me?? then you stick the key in the hole if its your passenger door turn it to your left, following me right?? then you grab the outside handle and pull on it, then pull the whole door and BINGO! door open...

or i can just tell you the simple proses... OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE LOL...

well ok follow me here lol.. next time you post here, be specific about your problem!! dont just post part of ur problem, because then you will get a smart ass like me make a smart ass answer... the door should open from the inside if you take the just the inside door handle off.. can you see the metal tubes inside the door throe the hole? can you take a picture? it would help..

Use a jimmy to unlock it or take the door panel off. Those are your only two options. Actually if the metal bar from the assembly fell down taking your door panel off would be your only option. At least the top part of the panel. Just yank on it after you take the mounting screws off. There should only be a couple.

Theres a couple of screws and two way clips. If you break the clips get new ones, they are like a dollar. He needs to get this fixed. So far you havent given a different way of doing this. Please contribute something or STFU. If you want to fix your door and cant jimmy it open taking the door panel off is the only way. Unless you want to climb in/out your window every time you get in/out of your car. I hear its a hit with the ladies, they think you have a race car when they see you.

what u are on ur period?? im not talking to you!

Im trying to think of a way to open the door, the answer you gave them about jimmy the door open is not very specific ether, so if you dont have an exact solution to the problem shut up!!.. cuz just like me you dont know the answer ether.. and the original joke at the beginning of the thread is for the OP to post more info, cuz the story was kind of short.. but anyway i dont have to explain my self to you..

Back to the OP, can you try to brake off pull/out the inside door handle, and pull the panel up, it should at least come up enough from the back side for you to be able to pull forward, and don't be scare to pull hard on it.. after you do that, look for the tube inside the door that unlocks it and pull on it, should pull towards the back of the car to unlock.. if you still have no luck take some pix or if you live in tampa i can meet ya at a parking lot and help ya i got tools.. good luck

is that enough help for you NandoSol?
