How to remove door handles RRS | |
Up date!!!! have done and learnt how!! all but pass door are removed from outside of car.... take the passenger side door handle cap off with you key, but unlike the other door handles the passengers door has a key barrel to remove before you can remove handle and this is done via a torx screw through the side of door when open, there should be a little rubber gromet, remove and seek hole and unsrew torx ( but becarefull not to drop it like i did, with several trips to dealer B4 getting the right one ,coz I didn't want to take door pad off, I suggest you undo the torx screw while trying to wriggle the lock barrel out, and use a magnet attached to tool.
after this as been removed you then can give the handle a pull and tug towards your right (if RHD) and this should just slip out. the other 3 door handle caps are held in with two clips that are not designed to be removed without breaking, ( see my pic's in gallery) they are only £5.65 each from L.R. so I bought new ones coz I was having them painted. remove the other three handle, same as first one pull and tug off.
P.S dealer told me L.R have changed the caps, so they all have a key hole removal system, like passenger side?
PPS if buying mud flaps and thinking like I did that land rover wouldn't be cheaper than E Bay, well think again coz they were cheaper and with no postal cost. Stephen Hughes
