I got a jamed trunk lock open after being rearended with a cheep fast food flexible plastic knife it may help. Once open will you replace said handle? or complete door from auto recycler? If so you could probably drill out the locking mechanism but may destroy the door you may replace anyway. Good luck

SOURCE: How do I get to the heater filter on my 2009 kia carens

I eventually found the answer to my problem on a website called kia-forums.com telling me to open the glove box and pull it sharply and backwards.it disconnects from the plastic hinges. The filters are easy to replace by unclipping the cover which is easy to see. This is for a 2004 kia carens

2009 Kia Spectra. How do you fix a broken door handle that won't open from the inside of car?

The window being off track has probably fouled or damaged the door handle mechanism. The videos for both jobs should help. It is messy in there with wax so wear latex or vinyl gloves.

My glove box handle broke off of my 2009 kia sportage. How can I open my glove box?

Find another Kia Sportage and look at that working glove box to see what you should do to fix yours. It helps if you or a friend is "mechanically inclined".
God bless your efforts.

Glove box wont latch

If the glove box was closed wrong than the latch that keeps the glove box shut will close on itself. If you take a pen or a screwdriver and put little pressure on it and try the handle again it should open. if thats not the case than replace the handle, the locking mechanism with in the handle or the spring broke or came apart.
