The clip is between the crank and the little plastic washer. Most tools made for removing such clips don't work because of the way the washer is made.
Here's what I usually do:
Note that the clip is installed at the factory with the open end facing the crank handle. If you reinstall this way, you'll always be able to remove with the same method.
The handle clips into the door. Slide it forward (I think-- in not try back) and it should come right loose from the door. After the handle is pulled loose from the door, rotate the trim panel so the handle fits through the hole.
yup shes off now thx.. now i see i dont have much room for speakers, the window travel frame is right there and pair of speakers i bought dont fit and t heir slim design.. ugggg
It seems I have door speakers in my 99 Accent - stock - so there is something available if you hunt around.
