I'm trying to remove my front door cards but I can't see how to remove the window winder? Can anybody help me out, Cheers.

There is a C-clip behind it, i usually pull it (lightly) away from the door and fiddle in behind it with a thin flatblade screwdriver, and after a bit of swearing you will get it out, then the other one will be easy as you know what youre doing lol


Aim it down though as it will ping off into nowheresville:eek:

I looked in the trusty Haynes manual and they said use a bit of rag behind the winder and move it in a sawing action. I done that and the clip appeared in sight so I just got my screwdriver and prised it off a bit untill I could grab it.

the big trick is to keep the doors & windows shut, then when the clip sods off, it only ends up inside the car.

If you have the clip facing the door pocket then it lands in there :d

see brains has it right with the facing to the door card!! but its a pain and do it a few times it becomes easier and easier a number of cars use them and there a stupid idea but ahwell. but when putting the handle back on put the clip on the handle pirft them line it up and give it a whack, dont try to stick it on once you have pushed on the handle otherwise you will end up destroying somethin
