Window Crank Removal

[BCossette]

How do I just pull off the window crank without one of them special tools.... I can get one from crutchfield for 4.00 but they charge like 6 for shipping, and i'd have to wait a week. That is completely pointless.... Is there a way to take it off without that? any suggestions on how to?

Just buy one at Autozone or any parts store. If not, all it is is a flat piece of metal you slide in there to release two pins. Some small flathead screwdrivers might work.

I was at B&L autoparts picking up a buncha primer filler, thinner, and some other stuff for painting my new front fender, and I saw a HELP! rack over in the corner and figured there'd have to be one over there... looked and saw one. 5.00 for it. Thanks a lot for the idea, if I wouldn't have seen it there I woulda thought of that. Heh. Thanks a lot.

Cool, glad you got it figured out ...I bought one at Autozone awhile back for around $5 too. I think I threw it away after I installed power windows :D

The one that I bought was completely universal, I believe it will take off jus about any window crank off in the world. They're all prolly on the same exact way, heh.
