  • Opening a broken door

    My bro was driving the MK2 recently and and he said the drivers door won't open.

    I had a look and sure enough you can't open it from the outside or inside.

    Now I know how to get the trim off and probably fix it up but how do I open the door manually?

    Thanks

    this may sound silly but has the door lock got stuck halfway, mine does this sometimes and the door will not open from inside or outside yet all the others do. arpart from that, you need to pull on the rod going to the catch you may have to fiddle with a coat hanger and stick it between the door and window

      Thank Tom. You're always good for help.

      So should I try and take the hard plastic trim off the windows edge first? That's what I was planning on doing.
