astra 2003 estate, rear door will not open inside or out!
We recently put the childlock on the rear door for obvious reasons but now the door will not open from outside or inside, obviously because of childlock. I'm a bit stuck. Can't take the door panel off without opening the door and we have to put my son in the car now Dukes of Hazzard style! Any easy way to fix this? Or am I going to have to succumb to the evil costly mechanics?

Unless it responds to further attempts to open it from outside, then you're in the hands of the experts.
