I need to replace the green plastic window rollers.
I have the puddle light disconnected. I followed BMillars' advise and did this first. Son Of A Porridge Pot! This lamp gets HOT fast.
I have the window surround plastic trim removed, not as fragile as I feared.
I have the button removed to access the T30 screw in the door latch nacelle. But where are the other two screws????
All posted instructions are for the OG 9-5 with visible screws in the the door handle, the '08 does not have this feature.
Does the flimsy cover on the pull handle pop off to reveal the screws? It is below freezing in my garage and I don't want to stress the plastic too much.
