well i got the door card off and only snapped 2 clips on the actual inside handle, no problem.
once i got it off i realised there's no way you cn possible get to the mechanism from inside the car, the back of the door behind the card is one big metal sheet with no holes to get through.

does anyone know how to get the external handle off? halfrauds dont seem to sell a mk5 haines

have a look at the edge of the door - should be some screws??

might come off the same way a MKIV handle does - think its one torx screw on the edge of the door  :undecided:
