Hi there, my 93 CE eurovan's slider door's lock froze a few weeks ago and then the little 'flap' inside the key lock bent so no i cant put the key in to unlock. and of course the inner lock piece that i could normally pull up to unlock from the inside is missing Rolling Eyes (has been since i picked it up a few weeks ago) How do i get the door open? I cannot see how to pull the inner panel off

Door needs to be open to really pull the panel off. I’d try fishing through the hole first to try and pull the unlock. I take it that the electric actuator doesn’t work as well?

No power options , I'll try fishing for the door unlock today, is there anywhere I can find a diagram of what it looks like?

upside down, but this is it. I was thinking that you could hook the bar that the locking knob normally pulls up from through the hole.
