how do you remove the door panel if you can not get the door open? My lock is stuck in the locked position....

2004 GX, my drivers side door lock started having problems a few days ago and I'd have to cycle the electric locks a couple of times to get it to unlock and open.....but now it's no longer working at all and is now locked. I wanted to remove the door panel to see what was broken inside....but I can't get the door panel off when the door is closed. The key does not in the outside lock either.....uggh!

Any thoughts on how to get the door open? It's really a PITA to keep climbing out the passenger side......
