First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... I had the same problem with my passenger door. The way I got it open was to roll the window down and use a coat hanger or some stiff piece of wire. Bend about a 1/4 inch "L" hook on one end. Using the window opening at the top, use a flashlight and start fishing for the lock tab and the tab for the push button on the latch. It may take a while but sooner or later you will find the right part to pull up and get the door unlocked. If you have the door panel off, you may be able to reach it better from the opening on the back edge of the door.
Good luck, Ed -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 29, 2008 12:21 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [FGF] Fwd: 67 door latch First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... Hi, I need some help with the driver side door latch of my recently acquired 67 Firebird.? I can't get the door to open.? Both the outside and inside handles work fine and connected to the latch.? I removed the door panel to see if I can gain access to the latch but no luck.? It appears that something inside the latch assembly broke and won't release the latch. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Submissions to Firebird-L: <[email protected]> Unsubscribe from Firebird-L: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Help: <http://FirstGenFirebird.org/firebird/Firebird-L.html> Classifieds: <http://FirstGenFirebird.org/ubb/> Owner Pictures: <http://FirstGenFirebird.org/show/> Donations: <http://FirstGenFirebird.org/store/cart.mv?999999> FGF Merchandise: <http://FirstGenFirebird.org/store>
