hey guys :( someone tried to break into my mx-3 last night. He messed up my lock and handle on my driver side door. Now my door doesnt open from the outside-only the inside. I have to crawl in from the passenger side and it sucks :( Can someone tell me how to open up the inside door panel so my boyfriend can try to fix it for me? Much help needed. Thanks. You guys are the best.

Take three screws outta the door..One next to the inside handle, one inside the lil tray next to the window controls, and one next to the actual latch on the end of the door. Next you have to be careful and pull the door clips outta the actual panel using a door panel clip removal tool or I have used a weed puller too...ya know the kind that looks like a big flat bladed screwdriver with a V cut out in the middle? Pull it away from the door and pop the harness off the window controls..Voila there u go!! U need pics lemme know.. Oh yea this is for my 94 RS

You dont need a weed puller or anything, ive had to pop my door panel off like 5 times and its easily done by hand.
