I'm going to see if a locksmith may be able to open it from the outside. But am I correct in assuming, the only thing I should have to do (now that child lock is levered off) is push down on the rod on the outside edge of the actuator? That should release the door right? I've looked at diagrams...

I figured out why I couldn’t post, being a new member. I’ll repost in 5th gen forum once I can. Thanks!

Welcome! Just joined myself!

Haha I was so confused on why I could not post then found the 15 rule. Of course I only came to this forum with an issue I’m currentkh experiencing and will wait patiently til i can post a thread!

I’ve never really had a good experience with the built in navigation. And because of the iPhone apps, never messed with it. Seems kinda like an outdated concept to have to pay for gps updates.

I need a roof rack! Lol...these looks like a blast!

That color looks so good!

Thanks for the instructions!
