    The rear p***enger window of my 60 lincoln won't go back up! I removed all the screws on the door panel but can get the handles off to remove the door panel. I need to remove the window crank handle and door opener handle, is there a special tool?? This lincoln has been a huge leaning curve.

    The tool makes it easy but if you push in the door panel around the handle you can usually push the clip out of it's groove with a small screw driver or pick. Putting it back together just put the clip in the groove and press the handle on until it "clicks" in place.

    That tool is not necessary. Besides it doesn't work that well. I can pop the handles and cranks off my doors much easier and faster with a piece of safety wire with a loop on one end. Just hook the loop over the clip end and pull. Couldn't be easier and you don't have to pay for a tool thats not that efficient. The twist tie on a bread bag works just s well.
