Unbelievable man I've been doing door panels and door handles for 25 plus years and this one drove me absolutely batshit you might want to tell the people take the hook tool it's on the left side of the plug it's like a little squeeze job you know you could almost take a pair of needle nose and pinch it down or the hook tool like you said but the release is on the left side of the plug the white plug that plugs into the actual door handle to make it so you can actually slide it out like the rear door handle cuz the rear doesn't have a plug but hit me up if you need any tips bro on any other cars I know sometimes it can get frustrating and I needed help and you I mean got me more or less to where I was anyways so thanks for the help man appreciate the video

Is it the same on a Gen 2 Prius?

Yeah for some reason this one just would not unplug the white plug from the door handle I had the first locking clip I guess you could call it that has the black tape around it the little Phillips screw which does absolutely nothing I guess it's got the guide on there for the door handle for the lock the yellow thing but man oh man every year they got to change the cars and every year we got to go to quote school unquote lol
