    I think there is a metal pin between the winder and the door skin. They are an absolute b*tch to get off though.

    There is a horse shoe shapped clip holding them on. I normally just use a flat head screw driver to clip it off. Make sure you put a rag over the winder tho, as they have a habbit of flying off at a hundred miles an hour.

    yep, i used a really skinny, stiff wire, with a kink in the end. I was able to just push it off. In the past I made a tool that looked like this

    Yep, rag trick works quickly and easily and every time.

    I can take a door trim off in about 2 minutes thanks to the rag
