its nto to hard to get the door cards off, worst bit is the black sticky goo sealant they use.

Anyway its common, load of wd-40 etc will not doubt sort it out.

when you use the key does the boot and other doors open?

Also push the button the other way and it should lock the doors. If it only pushes one way then someone has fitted the front on wrong when they were changing a bulb or something. take it out pop the front off turn it up the other way and it shoudl work.
