I need to get a "slim jim".  I've seen them used.  I've had good results
with coat hangers in the past (always on someone else's car of course).

I certainly don't want to ruin my door panels.  They're only a couple of
years old!  That's why I was hoping someone had removed them successfully
with the door closed.

Thanks for all the kind words (and for not laughing).  

Darrell

While I've never had to pull the panel with the door shut I guess it could
be done.  I'd be leery of tearing the panels up though, unless you planed on
replacing them in the near future anyway.  I locked the door on my 67 Elky
after changing locks and realized I left the new keys inside. (stupid...)  I
used a coat hangar and went between the glass and the outside channel to get
to the locking rod.  Took some maneuvering but it worked.  A slim jim would
be easier I think...finding someone to "borrow" one from though could be a
problem.
