Cool Drivers door wont open

I have a 97 Ford F250 4x4 Single cab, i broke the handle trying to open the door, i rolled down the window to open the door and the the outside broke as well so i had to crawl out passengers. I was able to remolve the inner linning of the door on the truck to get to the guts of the door ( it is power locks which does work.) I need to get the door open to replace the machanics of the lock. any ideas on how to unlock or open the door. All the help would be appreciated. David

If you REALLY wanted to trick it out out could always install the poppers and then shave the door handles so you can have auto-opening doors. =)

I'm sure someone on here can offer some real advice...but it would be pretty trick with poppers!!

You should be able to find the rod that goes from the inside door handle and pull on it to open the door.
