Removing Door Handles

I was wondering if anyone here has any tricks of the trade as far as removing the door handles goes on a Camaro. Right now, the spring on the driver side handle is broken so it kinda flops around and the passenger side handle I broke the tab off of while replacing the lock cap and shutter so it can only be opened from the inside.

I can't angle a socket down in there and don;t have a wrench with enough reach to get to the two nuts on the back of the door handle that hold it to the door. I am hoping I don't have to remove the window.

Any pointers?

Re: Removing Door Handles

pull the interior paneling, leave the window up get your hand up thro hole for the power window assemble (if equipped). use a 10mm wrench to get the two bolts then either a pillars or a long flat blade screw driver to pop the plastic clip. its pretty straight forward
