You can try beating w/ your fist around the edges of the door where the latch is.
If that doesn't get you in, I remeber reading someone broke the mechanism and they had to drill the trim/handle panel/pocket out, basically destroying it. I think you have to buy all this as a single piece anyway, mechanism included...
Easy Ed posted the service manual pages on this, but its w/ the door in operation.

My 08 H2 has the same problem. The dealership wants $1200 to practically break the inner trim and control assembly and replace it. Can you elaborate how you repaired it at home. The retaining clips on the inner trim are at the bottom of the liftgate, I was told and hence not accessible when it is closed.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!!
