you can use a knife instead of that "removal tool"

Look between the handle and the door panel, you might have to get creative but there should be a spring clip around the crank. Simply remove the clip with a scribe or needle nose pliers and pull the crank off. That simple. This is strictly from memory. I could have the wrong make and model :dunno:

take a stiff piece of wire like welding wire, bend a small hook in the end, hook it on the clip and pull. been doing that for 20 years. i have one i made with a wooden handle

All you have to do is install the clip back on the handle completely. then just pop the handle back on. That's why it's tapered.

Yeah, going on is the easy part!
I use a dental pick to get the hook out to begin with.
