I have not had your problem but I saved this from the board a while back in case. I do not know if it works but it is something to consider. Good luck. I hope others have ideas too.

Paul,

The internal portion of your latch is broken. In order to get in, to replace

it you have to get the glove box open. Wrap a 12" pry bar with a rag and pry

the door open as far as you can without destroying it. Look at the wire latch

center top, that needs to be cut, I use an air saw with a hack saw blade,

being very careful not to ding the covering on the door. Once the wire latch

is cut the door will open and you can take the back of the door apart to

replace the latch assembly. (it's a kit you buy) Make sure you buy the wire

latch you cut as well.
