Have a look at the catch on the door.It has a 'forked' piece that swings one way or the other.On the car,there is a small 'knob' that sticks out about 1/2 inch.With a thick bladed screwdriver,the catch on the door must be clicked back into position so the opening of the fork can let the 'knob' slide into the catch.When looking at the catch,the moving fork is mounted in the catch itself so push around the screwdriver to flick it back out.Its a hard thing to describe but once you do it you will see what I mean.Hope this helps you(the fork has to be swung/clicked sideways)
