[@DoitallPaul2196]

This is the smartest tip ever gracias

[@RealWorldGarage]

Thanks, I appreciate it. Things you learn along the way. I think this is one my now retired mechanic father showed me.

[@mikenewwave4298]

You are a lifesaver!!! I had been trying to get a window crank off for 3 days. I tried this method and it actually worked!!!

[@RealWorldGarage]

Glad it helped!

[@Sillyfrog_Yippee]

This is the most awesome tip ever! My husband went to O'Reilly's to get a tool. The sales guy says "I never had a crank window." That shows the times now a days. He came home n we found you! Thank You so much for sharing your knowledge!

[@RealWorldGarage]

You’re very welcome. Glad it was helpful.

[@nidaldajani728]

The BEST practical tip. Thanks.

[@jesusmejia1334]

This is a top tier tip. It was so annoying trying to get that little clip out with a pocket screwdriver. This worked like a charm! TY

[@RealWorldGarage]

I appreciate that. I learned it from a top tier mechanic, my dad. They make a tool, but can cause damage to the door panel. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@CptPandy-tj9ty]

Golly man saved me. I was trying to do this with 2 pick tools and slipped and cut ny finger. I was about to buy a tool but this saved me $9

[@RealWorldGarage]

Glad it helped you!!

[@wespallin3310]

Thank you so much. The wrench gods praise you.

[@kevinpulver4027]

Man that's amazing. Thank you so much! I just used it used it on my ninety four nissan Sentra. But it would work on all kinds of things. I wish I'd known about this forty years ago!

[@RealWorldGarage]

That’s probably when I learned it, 40years ago.

[@willriseabove6858]

Thank you!! I seen others videos and I still couldn’t get it and the shop rag didnt work for me still so I used some string and it came out after and 3 turns back and forth.

[@RealWorldGarage]

Glad something worked out for you. I have come across a few that I had to work the rag down in there a few times.

[@jamiehuff4392]

I've tried and tried to get mine off for a good 45 mins then I went to your page and got it off within 2mins🤔 THANK YOU

[@RealWorldGarage]

My dad taught me this trick many years ago. I haven’t had one that I couldn’t remove to date. Good luck!! Thanks for watching. I try to do these kinds of tips on my channel.

[@tylerwood2980]

Holy shit it works

[@RealWorldGarage]

Like a charm. There’s very few with those clips o haven’t been able to get off. Thanks for watching.

[@donnasaunders4220]

Is that the same to do when the handle squeaks?the sound is coming from the window crank and not the windo itself

[@RealWorldGarage]

This trick is to remove the window handle.

[@samuelhodge3603]

Beauty, use this method easy as

[@gabriellaariano1906]

Amazing 💯😳👀🤗I just used this method

[@RealWorldGarage]

It’s the easiest, damage free way I’ve every seen. My dad showed me years ago.

[@robertthrem3382]

Lmao

[@RealWorldGarage]

Crazy simple huh??

[@Gray-n5x]

Is 2015 different I’m about to burn the fin thing

[@RealWorldGarage]

On some models of cars/trucks it’s actually held on with a screw in the middle. The window crank just has a cover and you can pop it off and it will swing out of the way and you can access the screw. I’ve never had one with a wire clip that I couldn’t get off with this method, not to say there isn’t one that this won’t work. But I’ve worked on a lot of cars all makes and models.

[@ILoveChanelLynn]

🙏🙌👏👏

[@leolascott5606]

If my handle won't stay on and comes off in my hand as I crank the window then the clip must be missing. Does that sound right?

[@RealWorldGarage]

Yes, they sell them at most parts stores. I saw them in Oreilly’s last week. Thanks for watching and commenting. ✌️

On some door handles it is a little harder to get the shop towel in behind it or the clip is located where you really have to push a bunch of the towel in there. Thanks for commenting and subscribing. ✌️
