help! rear driver door will not open from inside or out

Can anyone offer any help here? I swapped out my rear door panels with sunshade ones, and reinstalled the passenger rear one incorrectly, and now the door pin is wedged in a downward position inside of the door card, and I have no idea how to get the door open to fix this, without cutting into the door card I'm going to try to push it upward through the panel behind the hand grip with a long screwdriver or something, but thats all I can think of. has anyone else ever had anything similar occur?

Get a long needle nose pair of pliers or surgical clamps and with patience push down and move the pin to the proper position!

That sucks. Could try a small fishing hook. The hole is so small so it's going to be hard
