    Question Spanner to Remove Manual Window Crank

    I need to pull the inside of my car (95 vs (I imagine it would be the same on a lot of different models)) doors apart so as I can get to speakers in the front doors and I also want to greese up some parts of the mechanism that winds the windows up on all doors and I just needed to know a good way to get the clip off the back of the window winder crank. The car manual said that you can make one but didnt give any specifications on how big or whatever. Any help would be much appreciated.
    Cheers

    Not sure on the VS, but for the VK i was told to slide a Tea-towel behind the winder, and pull... and it will release the clip, takes a few goes to get right if you know how to do it.... or if your like me, its a 1 in a million chance lol.

    Make sure that you wind the window up before refitting the handle so it is in the right position .
