RE: door lock

It opens from inside of car, but not from outside, you hear it unlock, the plunger comes up like all other doors, but when you pull on external handle it acts like its locked.

RE: door lock

there has to be a couple of bolts on the bottom of the panel, at least one in the door hande, one under the lever to open the door and I think the rest are just clips
