Need to open rear door to replace broken handle

Asked by GrayceA May 24, 2020 at 10:46 PM about the 1995 GMC Safari

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My van has 2 rear doors the outside handle is broken.  The doors are closed.
How do I open the door to access the panel in the door frame?  By using the
key, I can lock and unlock the door but can't open it without the door handle.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated!

Update...I had to take to a mechanic. The mechanic drilled out the 2 bolts to remove the handle and then reached inside the door to open it. Then he put on the new handle.
