Helps to have the roof down so you have some more working space - that way you can lift the card straight up.

That’s great to know! Those clips are cheap, and probably needed replacing anyhow:-)

I am still confused as to what actually caused the door latches to stop working... After I pulled the door card out, I just fiddled with the latch mechanism for a second and everything started working again. Maybe the cable just wasn't seated properly? I have no idea.

That is confusing for sure. That both the inside and outside latch handles stopped working is the real challenge. Perhaps something to do with the lock tumbler being bad, and leaving the locking mechanism in an uncertain state? We’ll likely never know…
