Door lock and lack wont disengage

I cant get open my driver side door, anyone know how i get off door handles without damaging original?

 

inside handle?

 

Maybe the clip on the rod connecting the outside handle has come loose and the rod disconnected. Remove door panel, there is a nut inside that holds one end of the handle, and a screw on the back edge of the door that holds the other end of the handle on.

Depends on the inside handle if it's an "L" shaped handle, you have to carefully remove the black insert (there are tabs on each side) with a tiny screwdriver. Once you get that out, there's a phillips head screw to remove the cover plate.

Yup, appreciate the help

 

What was it? For a future reader that has the same problem.

 

Internal external locks wouldnt disengage and outside wouldnt unlach
