To remove the outer handle from the Audi A3, open the door to detach the circular protective cover on the side. Under this cover, you will find the screw that secures the handle in its housing: by unscrewing this screw, you can remove the outer handle and also pull out the internal mechanism after disconnecting its connectors.

This will allow you to replace the components by fitting the new internal mechanism and the corresponding handle, securing everything with the appropriate screw.
