Hi There,
I pretty new to repairing and replacing parts on my car but can pretty much mend or repair anything if giving a few pointers so I'm wondering if someone can point me in the right direction of how to remove and replace the door grab handle for my 5dr MKV golf.
It's the one with electric window controls for all 4 windows.
The reason for doing this is purely cosmetic as my old one is scratched quite badly and I don't like it this way.
Any pointers will be much appreciated

There are no fasteners holding that part in place - it is all trim clips. Pry along the edges with a trim tool. Here are some pics to assist.

^^use a plastic trim tool or old credit card. metal on plastic would wreck it more than it already is. not to mention if its small enough to fit underneath, its small enough to punch a hole in it.
