Peugeot Expert: Easy Access to the Side Door Handle

When I was carpeting my van, I couldn’t find a tutorial on how to remove the trim around the inside door handle on my Gen 3 Peugeot Expert. So, I thought I’d make a short tutorial showing how it's done.

Tools Used

The only tools you'll need are a screwdriver with a 6-lobe Torx head and a trim removal set, which will make the process much easier.

The Process

Start by using the trim remover to pry out the plastic centrepiece around the handle. Once that has been removed, it will reveal two screws that hold the main trim in place, along with the door handle itself.

After removing these screws, it’s simply a matter of pulling the trim away from the door. The trim is held in with plastic tabs, and if any of these get stuck in the door, they can easily be removed and re-slotted back into place.

Once this is done, you'll be able to access the door handle for replacement or to re-carpet your van more easily, as we did.
