Are the exterior door handles on the front doors hard to remove? Reason is the handles on my swb look in better than the ones on my lwb.

Cant remember but getting the door card off in one piece is half the battle.

Gently use a screwdriver to go round the outside to release the poppers as they are notorious for breaking.

The interior grab handle needs one bolt removing before you can get the card off....its a philips head but also a 10mm bolt head and I'd suggest using the latter as its seriously tight - you need a thin socket but theres some flex so if it seems a tight fit in the rubber handle you can force it in.

Then the door release plastic should also just pop out with some gentle levering.

Is this for the newer type grab handle ? I need to remove mine as they have started to crack and chip. Thanks
