2002 R53 Door jammed shut

[Jazmundo]

I removed my door panel yesterday to try and reconnect the bowden cable from the inside door handle to the door latch but struggled to find where to re-attach the cable to the latch end. I eventually gave up but once I put it back together again and tested it one last time something happened inside the door and now the door will not open using any handle (outdoor handle was not initially broken). I have now discovered decent diagrams for how it connects but don't know how i'm going to get the door open to get in at it again. Does anyone know any way to get the door open again without causing too much damage? Any help here would be much appreciated.

Cheers

I know it's been 4 years, but did you ever get an answer on this? My '03 Cooper S has the driver door stuck in the locked position and I'm looking for a way to get it open.

Thanks
