Hi Alan, coat hanger with a little hook & filed point end through a gap between the front drivers door lifting the door knob up. Will take some effort, maybe get your mate to prise the door away while inserting the coat hanger, good luck!
Ps, don't ask how I know... cheer's, Maka

I got the RAC out to do mine and he just used a inflatable pump up bag ( from bunnings pluming department) slide in between rear door frame and B pillar..pump up bag then with some steel fuel line with a hook bent on the end go through the gap and open the door handle. took him all of 3 minutes i reckon.
