    Door Lock Knob removal

    Are there any tricks for removing the door lock knob retaining clip? The knob is in a recessed area and the clip removal tool that works for the window crank does not work on the door lock. I have repo door panels that are painted and I don't want to mar the finish... The door panel seems a bit stiff in the area and will not depress enough to see the clip.

    Any suggestions will be appreciated. The car is a 65 coupe.

    Thanks,
    Rob

    This has come up before and there are prior threads in the achives. Some use a L-hook hand tool while others grab the clip with a pair of needle nose pliers.

    You CAN gain working space access by pressing the door panel IN a bit...
