New to the Forum so bear with me.
We have a 2012 seat leon which we bought fairly recently. I was doing the front brakes when I noticed that the front door barrel was loose. I asked my wife and she says 'it's always been like that .Smashing. Investigated and found that the retaining ring had fallen off and set about removing door card,handle etc. Reassembed everything back as it was ( No it isn't) ,closed the door and .....nothing. Handle didn't work,internal handle didn't work.....Nothing.Thought I must have missed something or something's came off when putting the panel back on. So I set about trying to take all the fixings back out via inside the car and managed all but one of the lower screws. So I lowered the window to get at it from outside . Managed it, and tried to remove the panel. Realised that I couldn't because the cleats can be moved far enough away from the door at the dashboard.So tried to put the window back up ,but now it won't go all the way up. stops halfway because something has moved and must be jamming it. So because I cannot get the glass out of the way I cannot get to the handle mech to try and manually move the latch wire. Kinda f'kd really
Can anyone give me some pointers as to how I can get out of this mess ? Is there another way to open the door so I can get the panel off ?
Cheers
