Well locked my keys in my car tonight and the deputy that came to unlock the car managed to break my drivers side door handle off doing so. Luckily I just got a set of metal door handles from 5.0 resto that I WAS going to put on my '93 4 popper beater car. Well now I need to put one on my GT. My car doesn't have power windows and I am not sure how to remove the window crank. I don't want to break anything else.

if I remember correctly there is a bolt or screw in the center and then you can use a panel popper or carefully pry at it to get it to pop off.

it might have even been a torx bit, I wrecked that care 3 years ago and bought one with power.

Yeah man you are right. Thanks I figured there had to be a screw in the middle , but I was having trouble getting the plastic cover over the crank to snap off. I finally got it off and yep it is a torx bit. So I am done for the night, time to go buy set of torx bits in the morning. Thanks for the help
