Hi All,
Our 90 passenger side door handle has come loose. The screws for this are inside the door, I'm having trouble getting the trim off, particularly along the window. Does anyone have any tricks etc. Thanks in advance.
Cheers Pagey

Did you work this out?

On reading this again, you actually mean the external door handle?

Hi, Yes the external handle has come loose, and I haven't actually had a chance to get to it yet but when I tried I couldn't get the interior trim off from along the window sill and I didn't want to rip it so left at that stage.
Thanks

This weekend I installed sound deadening [Stage 1 only] on both doors. Taking the trim off wasn't difficult but..
1. I used a good quality Trim Removal [link below] for the trim plugs
2. The lugs cracked in two spots so I had to re-glue them with some Selleys Araldite.

The drivers door handle had been super loose previously so my mechanic had fixed it and swapped the screw out with a phillips head
Passenger side was a bit loose so I tightened it up but that side had a Torx head screw which I think is factory standard.

what he said... especially about breaking the lugs.
