Kroil (prefered) or PB Blaster will do a much better job.

Once you get the proper penetrant, use your long screw driver or coat hanger and place tip near the area you want to soak.

Then carefully spray enough fluid on the rod to let fluid flow down into area that is not accesible. Good luck.

Thanks. Still no bueno. I just dropped the car off at the body shop. May really need to damage the door card to get to the spot needed. It’s beyond my comfort level at this point.

Bought a re-man actuator unit, now shopping for a 15 and up Nismo door card just in anticipation.

We are too old for climbing in and out via passenger side.
