If you lift the outer metal plate up a bit, and separate it from the door, you should be able to see in enough to flip the two (I think it's only two, might be three) clips that are on the rods that work the lock mechanism. Once you've gotten them off of the rods, you should be able to slip the L shaped piece out of the clip and be in business.

When all else fails, get yourself a flashlight and take a look in there, it's pretty simple.
