How to remove the door handle from a Seat Arosa

Model: Seat Arosa MK 1 - Years 1997-2004
Part: Handle

In this video, we will see how to remove the door handle from a Seat Arosa in order to prepare the door for repainting. The method is valid for any car in the VAG group. In the thickness of the door, we find a hole (or a rubber cap) at the height of the handle. In that hole, we insert a T20 screwdriver and loosen the screw inside by turning it 10 times. The YouTuber advises against removing it completely. This way, we will be able to pull out the lock, then we remove the handle's sealing cable with the screwdriver, which we can now remove without difficulty.
