Part: Handle

Today, you will learn how to remove the front door handle on a Volkswagen Polo. Open the door from which you want to remove the handle and detach the black rubber cover located on the side of the door. Behind the rubber cover, there are two screws that need to be unscrewed using a T20 key. Once the screws are removed, insert the car key into the lock and turn it as if to open the door; simultaneously, insert a screwdriver into the hole to remove the outer part of the cylinder.
