thank you SO much! it helped me remove the door panel on my dodge dakota pickup so i could bang a dent out of the door! i ended up using a miniature 5.5inch pry bar that had a skinny 90deg bend at one end. the screwdrivers didn't work for me but being able to understand what the situation looked like, i chose the other tool to accomplish the same thing.

BIG THANK YOU! All other vids abt replacing panels omit models with manual window mechanisms! A quick tip: On my 97 Accord, one of the clips was 180 degrees backwards, and it was the easist to remove because I simply pulled the clip from the access point on the handle where one would normally push on the ends of the clip. I reinstalled all the handles with the clips back-to-front, since it's exponentially easier and faster to tremove. ON MY MODEL, at least.

Hey Mighty Mechanic, First let me start by saying that I pride myself on how mechanically inclined I am. But this handle removal got the best of me. I just couldn't figure it out. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing your knowledge. I guess now I won't have to cut the plastic door panel around the handle anymore to get the door panel off. (Major Donkey Ears for ME) LOL. Kudos MM, You the Man!

Make sure that when you're holding your window crank handle in your hand and it has to clip on it that you don't drop it because I dropped mine and it took me at least 45 minutes to figure out where that clip was and God I was livid! 😅 My window track was completely broken and I almost didn't notice that there was a bracket broken off of it and the bracket was broken and I still managed to fix the window only to drop the window crank and have the clip fly through the air and it was starting to look like a beautiful job of fixing my window is never going to be because of a 2 cent metal clip that I couldn't find so my window was never going to roll up and down well on my car none of the windows will be down except that one so I was almost didn't have any windows at all but now I can roll one down oh joy have a nice day

Didn't have luck with the dual screwdrivers, instead used a flat head and a putty knife and it worked like a charm. Thanks for posting this as it gave the base concept for getting that damn handle off.

Good call on the putty knife! My 2003 Dodge Dakota has manual windows, and the way the door card is shaped made it difficult to angle the screwdriver close to the retaining ring.

I have a 2005 Nissan Sentra 1.8L. I just bought for 500, It's a work vehicle. Anyways thing was pretty much undrivable. Replaced what needed to be replaced now it works and runs as it left the factory. Except one thing I can't get my passenger door to open. It's locked into place and I did however get it to open once by messing with the Crank window and fliiping the lock a dozen times, but then shut it forgetting that the door locks. How do I get this door open again. I can fix the lock after I get it open. I'm not breaking the door panel off in order to fix a simple lock... As told by another vehicle mechanic. Maybe a tool to slide into the window between the lock? Regardless I will get it open again. Tips would help accelerate things though.
