Mk3 door cards
« on: 07 February 2011, 10:00 »
Hi guys I've read a few posts on here regarding door card removal and I'm still stuck. I've popped off the card all around the edge as normal (I have done this before on other cars) but can't find how the hell to take the handles off, please help.

You have to pop off the top part of the handles. Need to get a flat metal bit under there, usually a screwdriver and gently prise it off.
Once ya done that there are 2 large phillips head screws to undo and the card will come off.
Watch the door pin.

Thanks Len I did wonder if that was it but didn't want to force it in case I busted the door card.

Fiddly putting them back on as the door latch has to be pulled out and mind the wires to the likes of the window switches.
