Need help with rear door knobs lost down the hole!
 
Help - my rear doors are locked and the threaded posts are not visable. I took the knobs off to replace them but locked the doors without thinking about it. the front opened but not the back. I cant open the door to get to it from the side . can i get the door panel off without the door open? any help would be great.

two other things - my glowplug light is not on - how do I replace it -

and my tach is not working - can the sensor be cleaned? are there any sites that have how to's ? thanks in advacne, Cary

Just tried it with hemostats and it worked well...twice. I've now decided to
become a surgeon. :-) I see these regularly at swap meets, gun shows,
small tools shop, Sears, Radio Shack, to name a few. Any well equipped
toolbox should have several of these in different sizes. $3-7 avg

No panel removal needed.
Just a flashlight, hemostat, and remote key. Cycle lock several times and
look for movement. Shine light inside and look around - locate threaded
rod. Grab with hemostat. Maneuver to center of opening. Cycle lock to
UNLOCK/UP position to bring rod above surface. Shouldn't take more than
5 mins.

What model car? The glow plug light almost never burns out. You very likely have a bad glow plug or two.
