To remove the external handle from the Volkswagen Polo, open the door to access its side: here you will find the bolt that secures the lock actuator and the handle corresponding to its housing. Once this screw is removed, you can extract the actuator and then the corresponding handle to disconnect the underlying connector.

At this point, connect the new handle to the connector, inserting it into its seat and securing it with the side screw.
