On my Belvedere the tabs were broken so I had to use 2 small screwdrivers,
one on the top and one on the bottom (just one side wasn't enough). Not
knowing how they worked in the first place, and not knowing they were broken,
made it a pain, but I finally got it. Now I need replacements.

door panel?
Bend 1/4" of the tip of an old butterknife up at a 90 degree angle --
that's pretty much all you'll need.
The tab is like a square that fits in a
groove on the shaft. When you slide the tab in towards the shaft, it
releases the other side of the tab from the groove in the shaft, and it will
come off. After you do the first one, the rest are easy. You just
have to understand how it works first. Find the springy side of the tab,
and push it towards the shaft. The clip won't come off, but it
will move about 1/4" in. towards the shaft.
The clip looks something like this picture
(if it goes through the listserv)
It there a way to remove door panels with a home
tool? I used a screw driver to slowly dislodge the clips holding panel
to the door. I did a good job not hurting the panel or the door.
The hard part I have right now is removing the interior handles. I was
following the instructions in the book I have. I just can't see what
on the handle has to get loose.
The instructions in the book are as follow:
INSIDE DOOR AND WINDOW REGULATOR
HANDLES
The door and window regulator handles are attached
with a spring type clip.
Turn window regulator handle down so that the
retainer clip is to the left. Place tool between washer and handle. Push
tool from left to right and at the same time pull outward on
handle.
When I look inside of the door panel I can clearly see the
spring clip but the retainer.
Is there any home tool I can use to remove the
handles?
And I don't want to use the Grinder..
Thanks,
Joey
