Okay I know I have a few topics going bu they are all slightly different. This time I need to replace my inner driverside door handle. How do I remove the linging?
I have undone the screws a/ at the handle and b/ at the side. I can't find anymore but I also can't get the door interior off. What am I not poping out right?
Is there a screw behind the speaker or something?
Also, anyone know of a glue for sticking together alloy strongly?

There are 3 screws behind the speaker grille, which just prises out. You also need to remove the screws behind the interior pull handle, the cover of which is prised out from one end (I can't remember which end so you may have to go carefully). The actual door panel is held on with 'orrible little plastic clips, most of which will break, but replacements are available quite cheaply through the stealers. You'll also need a scalpel to cut through the adhesive round the edge of the waterproofing membrane.

Can I just emphasise how important it is to ONLY cut the glue and not the plastic. Done carefully the plastic membrane will stick straight back on again no problem.hawkeye wrote:You'll also need a scalpel to cut through the adhesive round the edge of the waterproofing membrane.
I didn't use a scalpel when I did the Xsara's door liner but carefully peeled it back with my fingers and nails!
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.
