Alright, so my actuator came in (turns out it's mechanical only, no electric like mine, but as long as it works I don't mind that. Plus it looks like it has the space for the electric parts, they just arent in it). And upon playing with it... I still fail to see how I will be able to take out my current stuck actuator.

The internal unlocking mechanism isn't working. The lever at the bottom doesn't open the door.

EDIT:
Alright, I have found a small piece that I can turn with a 10mm wrench that will unlock the new actuator; I have yet to try it on my car but I will post an update later for anybody else that has this problem. Below is a picture of what I am talking about:



UPDATE-
Alright, so I grabbed a massive pair of pliers and just crushed the mechanism, taking chunks out at a time, until I got down to the bare door mechanism. This allowed me to upen the door and switch out the actuator assembly. Everything is switched out and working great, thanks guys!
