I don't see any c-clips, so have prise with screwdriver as my Autopress Manual suggests. I can get a good grip with Chanelocks, but just wiggles! I'm not missing something less than obvious here am I??? Mike >> For outside door handles; Look inside the door edge (Door side of the jamb) and see if you see 2 phillips head screws. You want to remove the top one (the bottom one gets the lock loose (up to 67).Once you get the screw out, slide the handle to the front, and lift out. For inide door handles; remove the plastic cover with a small screw driver, prying at the front edge,and pop it out. Underneath is 1 or 2 screws (depending on year) and remove them (it). Now you have access to the 2 10mm bolt headed 6mm screws that hold the handle to the door. I hope this helps.
