Ok, so I'm prepping my Camaro for a new paint job by removing all the trim badges window moldings and door handles. That's the problem, unlike any vehicle I've seen when you close the door it won't open, and you can't put the handle back on without the door being open. The passenger door is open still with the handle still on but there is no way to get to the latch on the closed door... door panel is off, cable is still attached to the door latch, but it does nothing when you pull the cable. Has anyone ran into this problem before?? Headed to my Chevy dealership body department tomorrow and ask.
