Any tips on getting it open?

It seems like the lock won’t unlock. Likely seized up.

Probably going to have to take the door apart. I had to do that on the GTP. Getting the door panel off from the inside with it closed = PITA.

Lube the shit out of it and see what happens. If that doesnt work, youll probably have to replace the mechanism
