Exclamation Rear door closed in locked position/wont open

Door my door panels off to vinyl wrap the wood trim and somehow when the door was re-assembled and closed, it will no longer open or unlock. I have custom door lock pins in the door so when its locked they are physically flush with the top of the door interior panel so you can't manually pull the lock pin up. Can I access the lock from the outside somehow to pop the latch? The interior door panel cant be removed as the door is closed.

Got it open. I drilled two small holes around the door pin and managed to pull it out with pliers.

I was about to suggest drilling one hole in the center of the door pin and using an EZ out to pull it up.
