Can anyone here tell me how to remove the rear door handle to replace with a new one including the internal hand mount?
I know how to remove the blanking lock piece but how do I remove the handle itself?

Re: 9N Polo - Rear Door Handle Removal - How?
Outer handle:
Remove blank cover (torx from inside side of the door)
Remove steel wire from the handle, slide handle towards the rear of the car and take it out.
Inner handle:
This one is connected in the doorcard.
Remove doorcard, but not completely, release steel wire by lifting the little black endpiece towards yourself, then remove steel wire by twisting it a little to get it out of the hole at the back of the handle.
Long story short.
Outer handle is 5min and done.
Inner one is somewhat more work.
Doorlock itself does not have to be removed
Good luck, and watch some YT tutorials
