Frozen Door Update

So it turned out that I didn't have to burn the car down or throw a brick through the window to get it open. After I came home from work today the car was clearly thawed out yet both doors still wouldn't open. I suspected the freeze broke the linkage on both door handles (probably when I tried to open them before thawing it completely) and that the doors would open fine if I only I could get inside.

So I had my wife pry on the door with a large screwdriver while I stuck a hanger in to trip the automatic locks so I could open the back doors. As expected all doors opened easily from the inside. So until I get new handles I can't lock the doors but since I just told you how to bust in I suppose that really doesn't matter now does it...
