remove the door inner trim panel and peel back the plastic weathershield,
with the window fully raised,undo the retaining bolts from the base of the window guide,remove the guide from the door.
release the retaining clips on the link rods to the lock assembly.
unscrew the two handle nuts and detach the lock cylinder mounting plate from the rear of the handle.
lift the retaining clips on the base of the handle,and remove the handle from the outside of the door.
re-fitting is a reversal of the above.

sounded like it was used as a grow room lol! i used to smoke bongs but had to pack em in cos my house mates was complainin it smelt too bad
but then again i was propa lazy and neva cleaned it n only changed the water like 5 times in a few months in the last bong i had
....and these guys didnt exactly force me to get rid of it, just suggested i bought a new one or sumin. probs for the best as smoked for like 6-7yrs and was smokin easily an 1/8th a day for last couple years, cut down on that insanely these days.
