I apologize if my joke was not as funny as I would have liked it to be. It was nothing against you.

If I am a jerk, thats fine. Sorry.

You can buy a tool for removing the manual window handles fairly cheaply... AND it also works great for removing the "christmas tree" puch pins that hold the inner dool panel in place.

I have a question. Behind the inner door handle there is a black plastic "plate" or "shield" about the size of the door handle that covers the view to the inner door (I don't know what it is called). How is that installed? When I removed my inner door panel it just came off and I did't see how it was attached. Thanks

If you look at the very first picture you can see where it sits just to the upper left of my knuckle and behind the door latch handle, it mounts to the handle mechanism and is installed before the outer surround goes on.

It does not attach very securely to the handle mechanism.

The outer case sits over it and it does not attach to that.

Hope that helps.

You could always go to a local auto parts store or harbor freight store and get this cheap tool.
