Coupe Exterior Handle and and Lock assembly
Sven,
Your are correct I took the glass out the manual does not show the two mounting studs at the top of the door -basically I have the assembly 180 degrees rotated. Once I had the prrocess down and took time to align, it made sense. As a BSME and X automotive engineer the German engineering is something to behold. The main point on this project is Patience -lots of patience.
My problem is I took the car apart 17 years ago with no photos refurbished the entire body sheetmetal saved every part but my memory is lacking. By time I am done will have a beautiful photo plan of every deatil on the car.
Thanks for your assistance
