    If it won't open from either inside or out the only alternative would be to cut a hole in the door trim to get at the mechanism. Or possibly break the door handle and get in that way.

    yeah youll get a door handle easier than a good matching trim so failing winding the window down and poking around with a bit of wire id be doing something about the handle.

    hmm i would say u have have forgotten to put the wire rod back on the new door handle.
    It is possible to wind the window down and pop the door plugs for the trim and manipulate it enough to pull the rod manually.
    Good Luck man

    there isnt anything to do with the inside handle that has to be removed to do teh outside handle so i doubt itll be the rod or anything obvious.

    How did you go with it?

    just take the base off the back seat out and you might have enough room to get the trim off,

    is it just out side handle or inside?
    if out side and inside it would be a rods poped off and worst case senario you put child lock on,
    so you will have to pop it open from in side with your hand, once trims off
