As I've had the new door handles for 4 ish yrs weather permitting I'll be taking the door cards off to fit them, will need reminding were the little clip is

Do you have the thumb part for the handles also, if you do then no need to remove the door cards, if not yes door cards off, and windows out to get access to the spring clip, pic below showing where it is.

Great then you can just prise of the old thumb part and it will snap the lugs, then you just push in the new one, this will then clip into the spring

You do need to be careful though.

Make sure your thumb part has the black insert before trying to fit, if not then transfer it from the old thumb.

Would you be willing to do the lights on my BMW please Andy? They're not too bad at the moment but I'd like them done before it's MOT.

Will try and remember my Impact driver + allen sockets

Hi David,

I'll happily have a go at your BMW lights.

See you soon.

Andy.
