Those little locks are notorious for falling in to the cockpit when you slam the door - I've heard a few folks have epoxied them on because of that.
Get a nice thick, large plastic bond spreader and a brake adjustment spoon and see if you can lever the spoon sitting on the plastic while its covering the door panel with the thin edge under the **** and pop that puppy off. Work from one side of the **** and then the other.
Short of that you might have to destroy the **** to remove.
