Before you can start, open the door of your Mini. Begin by removing the cap located on the side of the door using a thin but sturdy tool to pry it off. This will expose the bolt securing the handle. Proceed to unscrew and remove this bolt.

Once the bolt is removed, the handle will be freed. At this point, you can unclip and remove the handle from the door.

After completing this step, you will have successfully removed the handle.
