Re: Exterior door handle
Yes l can see the cable....so lm thinking that the cable is properly off the handle. ...so now lm thinking do l need to take the inner door panel off.l see a tread where the door handle can be removed without doing that ....so lm assuming that the cable can be taken off and back on with door panel on ....would l be correct ?
