Interior window crank handle removal

I got a parts car with manual windows and I cant figure out for the life of me how the handle comes off so I can ge the door panel off. Can anyone let me know how they come off?

Thanks

I'm guessing you've figured it out by now but for what it's worth, here are a couple of pics of the clip that holds the crank in place and the tool that's used to remove it.

That is freaking awesome. For all the years I've been doing this (as a pro and as a hobbyist) I've never seen that one.
Nice posting.
