07' NBS Silverado Ext. Cab...I took off the passenger's side door panel and undid the door latch cable while I was installing new speakers so I could have some room to work. The Infinitys sounded so much better when I tested them after the install that I forgot to hook the cable back up. YES! I closed the doors. Now the inside and outside handles do nothing when I try to open the door. Any "real" suggestions??? I know. I know. I'm an idiot but I need some help. I'll take a few hits I'm sure but I'm stuck right now. I don't see anyway for the door panel to come off with the door closed. The dash and sealt belt housing cancel that idea. Please HELP!!

I would go to the dealer's body shop. I'll bet they can tell you how to do it. Or perhaps do it for you if your lucky.

CORRECTION! Maybe I'm not half the idiot I originally thought. . . . . The cable is still attatched. I took out all the bolts holding the panel on and was able to lift up a little to get the top half of the panel to come off a little. Well the cable is attatched to the handle just like it's supposed to be. Now that I know I'm not the culprit I'm REALLY puzzled?? I didn't touch anything else while I was doing the speakers. As a matter of fact when I took it off before to get a clear picture of the mounting situation . . . .no problems! I can hear the door locks when they lock and unlock . . but when you pull on the handles . . . . notta! I even tried while I had the panel half off and everything moves like it is supposed to. Guess I'm gonna just call the service dept and tell them it stopped working. Ya'll think they'll try to give me any flack cuz I took them off to put in speakers???
