theres a clip behind the winder, use screwdrivers or get a special tool, but without that its trail and error

As said, it's a tricky little circlip. Try using a tea-tower or thin rag slotted in and pull on one side, one after the other !

Usually after a while it'l pop the clip off

Or buy the proper removal tool.

I usually bend a nail at 90 degrees then run it behind the winder - does not take much pressure to get circlip out - just keep an eye where it flies off to !

jam a small screwdriver under one side, and wind the winder against it, pushes the little begger right into reach

Managed .... thanks lads ... i was messing round with it for ages then come and had a look then made the thread , then whent back out then my mate come up and did it straight away ... god knows how he knew about that !

PS : Next time Vauxhall make a new nova , i personally think they should make a pop off cover with a screw behind it like the inner door handles .

I have an old paint scraper with a chunk cut out so it fits in onto the clip, it saves them flying off at high speed & getting lost
