i know that the door panel must come off but the thing is i have no idea if the panel can safely be taken off while the door is still stuck


i dont want to pay something outrageous for something i can do myself..
some real quick help would be appreciated

So both rods have stretched or popped off the handles?

You can put a wood wedge between the glass and door skin on the outside and see down in there with a flashlight...with Hondas most times when I have to unlock one for the owner I end up bumping the door latch and opening the door from inside while trying to unlock it, so I know you can do from in there...watch what moves when you pull the handle...if it's still connected and the rod's just stretched you'll be able to see how it works, and what you need to push to open it...fish around down there with a coat hanger or something and you can probably hook it...

I have specialized tools for unlocking, but assuming it's already unlocked, you should be able to bump the latch and open it pretty easily using anything that will reach down there..
