thats fine mate. Dauphin will see it and move it anyway

What you do to do up the bolts, is remove the door trim.

what you need: 10mm socket, PH2 Phillips head screw driver, Flathead screwdriver

3x screws along the bottom under the black/grey caps (dependant on series)
2x screws along the side of the door trim (looking at the side of it with the door open)
1x screw under the power window switches
2x 10mm bolts under the two grey/black caps that are just on the front of the door trim

then when you pull away, just make sure you are careful with the clips holding it in.. It will be a little hard to pull off, but just be careful with it

if it doesn't come off in a certain place, check around it for bolts/screws.. im quite sure thats all the screws/bolts, but its been close on 1year since i've removed an AU door trim.


then just look at the handle, and using the 10mm socket with extension bar, just tighten the two bolts holding the handle in.


Let us know how you go

Tony
