Cant remove door pannel... the winder blocks you from removing the trim

There is a little 'C' shaped clip that holds the window winder in place. There should be a hole at the top of the handle (the opposite end to where the knob is). Get something hooked shaped and small enough to fit in there and pull it out.

Yeah it's called a C clip:p. There's actually a special tool for that but if your hardly ever going to remove your window winders it's not worth it. However you could probably pick one up for a couple of bucks at repco.

i find that a rag is quite effective and wont scratch ya trim, just wrap it round under the handle and pull the corners, hard to explain but easy to do

I got it in the end.
Im taking off my door trim to reapholster it, so had to take winder off first.
