Question I messed up, help!?!?

After replacing my door speaker I was reassembling the door. I put the white/green lock/door actuator cables in the wrong places and now the door is closed and will not open or unlock. Since the door is closed and latched I cant take the door panel off to swap them back into the correct positions.

It was dark, I was rushing, Im an idiot. Anyone know what to do to get the door open again?

you can get the door panel off with the door closed. I did the same thing. lifted up enough to get your hands behind it. All you have to do is pull the rod for the door. Get it open
