Window and Door

I am attempting to replace the window handle and the inside door handle on my 1950 F1. I have read that pins need to be removed in order to remove the old handles. Has anyone got any tips for locating the pins, removing the pins, tools, and installing new handles.

They're easy. Push in on the escutcheon (trim ring) and you'll see two holes on the base of the handle. At 90 degrees to those holes are two more with a pin in place. Any kind of small punch, nail, etc will remove them along with a small hammer.

Toughest part is holding the spring-loaded trim ring back while you tap the pin out. Three hands work great!
