from memory screws at door card ends upper safety catch /allen key screws in hidden holes at door close pull handle( access fom underside) remove switches at this point /card pulls up not out and rubber insulaters fall in to door when u lift door card /dont lift too high as mounting for cable door open handle on door card can snap .soory beer goggles at this hour if i forgot anything

easiest way i've done loads before in the past

screw at front/rear top of door card
allen key at the front and then middle of the handle

hold onto the handle whilst its still fitted at the rear and pull the card up, then reach behind and unclip the cable and thats it from memory.

use a maccy d's straw on the popper to align it when refitting the card easily.
