I figured out how to get this issue resolved.

You have to pull up the rear seat bench cushion and take it out. It's super easy to do this.

There is a bolster panel up against the door and rear seat back. Pull straight out with it. Easy as well.

Remove the door panel as normal and then you can get the door open. You have to use a little finesse here because of the tight space but it's doable.
