Well, if it makes you feel any better, mine will not unlock from
the inside either.  Even though it seems to have a little lever there
for it.  Taking that inner handle/latch assembly apart has been on my
long-term list of things to do for a while now.  

If you need a handle, I saw *two* at the junkyard last weekend, and this
after looking for them for months, and finally ending up buying one on the
net :/

If I remember, the front door window cranks are easy to replace.  just pru
up the plastic cover near the center and there is a phillips head bolt
underneath.  Couldn't be simpler!
