Hi, my rear door linkage has broken (one piece door) and I cannot open it. The real issue is that I have a steel bulkhead in the rear behind kombi seats do cannot get to it from inside. Is there any way to open it from the outside? I don't want to have to cut my bulkhead out. Looking at threads it is impossible to do from the outside, as the door has a few bashes in it would I be as well to cut a hole in the door and replace the door instead of damaging a really clean interior bulkhead with tidy lining etc?
Thanks, David |

Bad luck! If the rod has come off (which is what usually happens) there is nothing you can do to open it from the outside. It's worth trying repeatedly banging the tailgate with your hand in the area of the handle with your hand in case the the lock is simply stuck. I'm assuming it's not a glazed tailgate of course!
