Hi all

The drivers interior door handle has snapped off, have ordered a replacement so will only have to open door through the widow for a couple of days!!!!

Does anyone know where i can get some instructions on how to fit the handle, or can some nice kind person tell me in easy steps

If it's a C5, then this thread will be of interest to you.

hey all

replaced the door handle yesterday, and i can honestly say it wasn't as bad as i thought

the hardest part was prising the bloody clips around the door trim open, jeeze u need muscles lol

the handle just hooks onto the door frame, so once the trim was off, it took bout a minute to fit the handle,

thanks everyone for their replies
