Stupid question....

Ok, anyone know how to open a hatch from the inside, like if theyres something you can pull, or anything to open the hatch, the hatch lock is mangled, and need to be able to open it to put a new lock in.

If the lock cylinder is mangled already, drill it out? About impossible to get to the mechanism from inside without cutting out an access in the plastic trim. My trim has two top screws that are covered up by the closed hatch. If you DO cut an access hole, you should be able to get to it ok, even though it is cramped back there. I doubt that trim piece is missing from many Pick-a-Part yards. Good Luck.


Well, I see I posted late. Glad you got it!
