Hi Colin, there is no need to remove the pull handle on either door and the lock piece on the drivers door comes out just like the other side.

Instructions for Removing trim and repairing lock

Well I did it, twice! Finally bit the bullet and fixed my machine gunning locks on both front doors. I took photos and have uploaded a PDF document with a set of instructions. This repair uses the repair kit on eBay costing £30.

The first door took me about 3 hours to do. The second door took me 45 mins to remove the panel, remove the lock and to repair the lock, then just 30 mins to replace everything. Doing both doors cost just a total of £40 including a T20 screwdriver. No other specialised kit needed so long as you have a torq screwdriver set, thin bladed screwdriver, a made up wooden wedge or similar to remove the pop the panel off its clips and a powerdrill. A pop riveter would help but isn't necessary.

The file is 5MB as it has lots of pictures but I hope it's worth it.

Lock repair kits for faulty lock actuators

The eBay trader in Poland called 'mercedes_24' has changed to a new corporate account called 'carrat_24'. He'll also do bigger kits if anyone needs to bulk buy. As above, just search for mercedes lock repair kit, and add your model number, eg W211. The W211 / W208 kits for E/C/CLK class are the same springs but he also does kits for M class, B class etc.

Remember it might not come up in your own country search but should come up under other countries, as the guy is in Poland. He's very helpful and always responds to my emails, in English.
