Folks

Can anybody please tell me how to remove the rear door card in a 124 estate. My pull handle needs re-attaching and today is the day the wife has decided it will be re-attached.
 
From memory, there is a bolt at the top of the handle covered by a piece of trim that pulls off, a screw and trim around the door catch, and the pull handle,otherwise it lifts upwards. There are some metal clips where the door card meets the window but again the card lifts upwards to remove. You should be able to reattach the pull without removing the door card, but that does depend a bit on how it has failed in the first place?

Thank you I managed to figure it out yesterday. Exactly as you say. Unfortunately the "pull handle" had come completely through the card. I re-attached using some self tappers and penny washers.

Thanks again for the help.
