...take off the window winders from the front door cards!

Tried to take the door cards off last night and got everything off apart from the winders. How the fuck do they come off? I know this should be in the help forum but I need to know quick smart please.

I spent ages last night trying to get the fucker off!

Max Power Haynes Manual

Yes as Lee says, there is a circlip behind the winder. Just pull the winder out as much as you can to get at it. Quite simple to remove really.

I tried everything couldn't do it. Couldn't see any clips or anything?

Look like it was just on a metal rod so guessed it would just pull off? Was using knifes, screwdrivers, spoons everything to try and prise the fucker off but it wouldn't budge. I actually bent the rod a little bit now its stiff to do the windows!

Lee, what is a circlip and where abouts is it?

I think its a good job it got dark cos I was starting to put some proper force into it!

How easy is this clip to get off. I didn't notice it before but now I'm looking for it will it be easy to find?

took me a while, was ages ago, guess it ain't too hard if u know which way to pull it, i ended up pissed off and just twisting it, pulling it and generally having a wiggle.
Do any parts of the handle come off?

What you have to do is pull the handle towards you from the bit that is connected to the door (not the handle bit), and whilst holding it, you basically have to prise the circlip out. You need some kind of tool with a really thin end on it though.
