Default Taking out door handles from an EA

Hey guys.

We are slowly pulling apart my old car, but we are stuck on getting the EF handles off.

The fronts are easy, but the rears are blocked by the the central locking unit (I think its that), the front doors didn't have it in the same spot.

How do we get it out without a sledge hammer?

Help is much appreciated.

Either get your hand up behind there with some needle nose pliers or a 10mm open end spanner and be prepared to spend a bit of time.....OR...

Drill out the rivets holding the CDL motor and move it out the way, then rivet/bolt it back in there when your done.

The actuators are bolted into the plate with 5mm bolts, you can take them out instead of drilling out the rivets.
