Yeah mine was doing that, been awhile since I did it, But I think I removed the handle. was able to get inside to reach the latches and get the door opened. Then replaced the broken clip. I did remove the door panel. Those clips can be gotten at most auto parts stores. Usually in the help section.

Ok so I finally got a day off and was able to work on my door some more. I actually got it to open. All you need to do is take the door panel off the rear door, take the little vent door out (its the little square box) behind the vent door there are 3 small nuts. I tightened them down until they broke. you will need to unlatch the top latch and keep it propped open so the door can move up. After unlatching the top use a pry bar to push the door up off the broken bolts (you may have to wiggle the door and help pull up on it). once the door pops open all you need to do is break the old latch off and either replace or just use the top which is what i'm doing for now. if you have any questions feel free to call or text 217-493-5140

in most cases when the doors arent used often the linkage from the handle to the bottom latch gets rusted, in my case just soak the latch with wd40 from the inside of the truck fold up the seat and have your biggest buddie kick on the door close to the jam and after a couple times it will come open then use some more wd on the latch once the doors open and itl work forever no need for taking the panels off (i did one that way and lost the spring from taking it apart so now the handle doesnt retract) but the bigfoot method works very well
