attachments that are outboard of water deflec-
tor, seal attaching bolt head and panel piercing

SPRING CUPS
A spring clip is used to secure remote control
connecting rods and inside locking rod connecting
links to door lock levers. A slot in the clip pro-
vides for disengagement of the clips, thereby facil-
itating detachment of linkage.
To disengage a spring clip, use a screwdriver, or
other suitable tool, to slide clip out of engagement
(See Fig. 6-8).

Removal and Installation
4. When seal has been broken down both sides of
deflector, carefully remove tape from inner
panel at lower corners of water deflector.
Disengage water deflector from inner panel
drain slot and remove deflector. On styles
so equipped, it will be necessary to partially
remove door bottom auxiliary sealing strip to
permit removal of tape at bottom of deflector
(Fig. 6-7).
Installation
1. Inspect water deflector and, where necessary,
repair any tears or holes with waterproof body
tape applied to both sides of deflector.
2. If a new water deflector is to be installed, use
old water deflector as a template. Trim new
deflector to proper size and cut holes for door
inside hardware. If old sealer does not effect a
satisfactory seal, apply a bead of body caulking
compound (approximately 3/16" diameter) to
inner panel at unsealed areas.
3. Position water deflector to door inner panel
and insert lower edge of deflector in retaining
slot. Then firmly roll or press edges of de-
flector to obtain a good bond between deflector
and door inner panel.
NOTE:
On styles using polyethylene coated
paper, black shiny side should be against inner
panel.
4. Seal lower corners of deflector by re-applying
previously removed tape or new pieces of 2"
or 2-1/2" waterproof body tape.
1. Raise door window. Remove door trim assem-
bly and detach upper rear corner of inner panel
water deflector sufficiently to gain access to
door outside handle attaching screws (Fig.
6-9).
2. Remove screws through access hole and re-
move door handle and gaskets from outside of
body.
NOTE:
On 68069 and 68169 Styles it is nec-
essary to remove rear door ventilator regula-
tor as described in the rear door section in
order to remove rear door outside handle.
3. To install, reverse removal procedure.
