might be able to at least flex the panel away from the door if you pull the seat

service bulletin

Found a service bulletin on line for 93 f-bodys.
about broken door latches.

Shows inner panel can be removed and pulled far enough towards seat to allow access, using a mirror and flashlight it shows a small opening on latch mechanism. using a icepick or scratchawl the latch can be released.

I think I will obtain my new latch before I attempt procedure
