+1 This. I wouldn't cut into the door for love nor money. Can you get the seat out from the other side maybe? Have you tried a "slim jim" down the window crack into the door lock?

Sorry to hear about your damage, that sucks man.

Roll the window regulator down,then shine a flashlight down there.See is any rods etc fell off of or the broken glass is jaming something.Also work the door handle. A coat hanger is your best friend then or a slim jim.

Not to cut the door but the star. Any ways I can feel the push button, is
making contact, I can feel inside door handle is connected. The door is
solid as a rock. I'm positive the star is hung up on the stricker, thats why
I figure to saw the star (I got locks and stars on the shelf). don't know yet
just a bad time of the year for this.

Got it, my boy went in there inside with a drift punch and gave the
stricker a whack. That did it with no damage or scratches....

That's great news Big. Glad you didn't have to hack on the door to get it open.
