jeffx Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I'm doing this above board, so please don't think I'm up to no good, but I found a good hatch for my wagon in a PAP in Phoenix and without a locksmith, I'm not getting it open. Is there a foolproof way to open a locked hatch from within the vehicle so I can get the parts I need? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnW Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 You might have to destroy the inner trim panel to get it open but once you do you will see how there is a rod going from the lock tumbler toward the latch that you can slide and then pull on the latch rod to open it.

jeffx Posted October 25, 2012 Author Share Posted October 25, 2012 I've got a trim tool. I looked at mine today--it has auto door locks so I know I have some remote hardware in there. Thanks for the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
