    The latch to the rear hatch is broken and the hatch will not lift up.
    The window part still operates fine, but the main door/hatch will not.
    The latch seems to have a broken rod or something inside. Can't access
    all the panel screws as most are in the door jam. Only four screws
    accecible at the top. When those are removed, that still does not
    allow enough visual into the inside of the hatch to see to the bottom
    where the action, or lack of action, is. What's the trick? Any
    special moves to get that rear panel off to see why the latch is not
    working?

    help help.
    thanks alot!
