Does anyone know how to remove the interior door handle on the door pull? Seems to be held in place by a few spring pins and a bottle cap rivet/pin.

I'm getting these parts fabricated in carbon fiber and I'd like to separate the handle from the pull. Thanks!

Take a narrow punch and remove the star shape bolt in one direction. Just easy to dismantle and put together after re painting or carbon dipping.

Thank you very much for the reply.

Before I destroy the part, to be sure, there is really only one way to punch it (down on the star bolt and into the pull) since the opposite side of the pull has no pin.

And actually, I'm having just a "few" parts skinned in real carbon fiber ( it's more expensive but looks way better than dipping in my opinion) - including the speedster humps.

I am sorry, you have to punch the star bolt for assembling !
To remove that bolt take a pliers and push the bolt in direction of the star shape from the inside of the handle (gently tap with a hammer on the pliers while holding the bolt) The bolt should move easily after a few milimeters.

Fabricated in carbon fibre? Be interested in more info please.. A small fortune looking at that lot!;)
