it should have a clip on the back. You can pull it off with a small hook or their is a tool made for taking them off!

There is a little wire like clip in there. They make a special tool to remove the clip. You can pick one up at any auto store for cheap. I have removed them with a couple small screwdrivers before when I had to.

Don't laugh but when I lost my clip tool, I went in the house and got one of the wife's butter knives and used that. It worked great because it had enough flex to pop the clip and was thin enough to fit behind the handle. ...........Jerry

Just keep an eye out for where it goes. They are hard to find when they fly off.

a plastic knife works good.

Go here http://www.mytoolstore.com/kd/kdbody01.html to see what the tool looks like. It's the first item on the page. Works great, I'll never go back to a screwdriver again...

I use a hook made from a piece of coat hanger.Seems to do the job faster than the special tool in the toolbox.
If you push in on hte doorpanel a little you can see the clip with the help of a trouble light.

If you know how to use the special tool, it takes literally 1 or 2 seconds total to get it off. No joke.

I've always used 2 screwdrivers. I second the fact that the clip will fly somewhere you'll never find it. Just go to the parts store and buy some more clips on the HELP brand rack.

What? The cutting torch isn't the correct way?
Oh sh*t...I screwed up big time. |
