If you're talking about the little trap door for the battery/CD/hard drive port you can try this. Remove whatever device you have in the bay. Make sure you have plenty of ambient light. Then use a small round 1 inch telescoping mirror that you can pick up at most hardware stores. Plumbers, mechanics, and electricians use them to look into walls, behind appliances, etc. You can use that mirror to get a look at the back side of the expansion bay door. They're cheap and ought to save you some time disassembling your machine. Plus, they come in pretty handy around the house. If you're talking about the door on the back of the machine in the area of the hinges, I can't think of a way to get back there without disassembling the machine.
