I think the door card comes 0ff from the bottom first but not 100%.
Someone will be along to help soon.
Probably don't need two threads about this though.

Can i get the door card off with door shut, and what do i need to look for? feels like the door handle opening spring is missing, the handle is very floppy. The lock works fine, but the door wont open.
Help/Tips appreciated!!!

The spring tension you (can't) feel is in the latch, not the handle - it sounds like a rod has come off or a plastic clip holding the thing has broken. Open your passenger door and remove the door card (5 min job with a long phillips screwdriver and a bit of patience). Once the door card is off, have a close look at the rods between the lock, handle and latch. Learn them - now you'll know what to look for in the driver door and suss out what ain't quite right.Yes, its the 3rd day of driving my mk1, and its decided to no longer let me in (or out for that matter) of the drivers door.
