    I have got the new window switch for the drivers door handle but can not find how to remove the handle or door trim so as to fit it. They have certainly hidden everything very well. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

    One screw at the bottom of the door panel, under storage tray in door card, pop out plastic cover behind door handle pull and I believe there are 2 screws, and finally 3 or four screws behind either plastic or aluminium trim at top of door card. Door card then pulls off.

    Many thanks. I presume I have to pull the plastic trim off that runs along near the top of the door card to find these screws. I have this horrible feeling that parts are going to break. As for the other screws you mentioned, I can not find any covers behind door open handle or any at bottom. It appears I may have to visit the dealers if I can't find these hidden screws soon.

    The plastic trim at the top pulls out then I believe slides to the left or right, the screws behind the door handle are behind a circular oval piece of plastic on the door card that pops off and the final screw is under at the very bottom of the door card in the middle of the door under the storage in the card. Hope that helps

    Just been out to the car, found all of the screws. Panel popped out easily so when time allows, hopefully tomorrow afternoon, I will get this done. Many thanks, you were spot on
