Hi guys

I installed sound deadening and haven’t put the door handle wires correctly.  
If I remember well I installed the heads of the wire properly but forgot to put in the right position the green and white plastics.  
It can’t be opened from both sides and central locking doesn’t work 😕  
It looks like I need to damage the inside part of the door a little bit for opening the door.  
I hope there is a chance for opening the door less brutally :).

Thanks a lot!

What I’ve done when having to remove the front inner door panel but the door doesn’t open is, unbolt the seat, and then move the seat into the back seat.

Now you can get at everything that holds the inner door panel on, and remove it.
