Wow, awesome video. I watched a few before I found yours and someone was removing all the interior trim. One hint for others trying this, when removing the skin, open the front door so you don't scratch it when removing/installing. Also, you can access the hidden bolt at 2:16 by closing the rear door and getting to it from the front door side.

Just changed mine thanks to your vid. Really helpful many thanks

9:33 this! Super hard to slide to right side and take that handle out… I struggled almost one hour and forgot about the t20 screw under the handle and while taking door skin out the whole metalic part holding the latch broke! Now I need new door ffs😢😩

Thank you bro. Great video, very detail.

You are perfect teacher!!!

great video thanks

Much job to do this but I need it

At 4:40 you also need to migrate the spring from the old unit to the new one to but tension on the door handle

Might have installed the bracket 6:48 wrong, happened to me in the past.

Great video I successfully changed the actuator which the shop told me would fix my remote issue, still the doors won’t lock or unlock with the remote. I also replaced the central control module. Which did fix the back door that wouldn’t unlock. Do you know if I need to get the module recoded? It was an exact part number match. Or maybe the used module I bought is bad.

In my golf mk6 I need replacement hole doors. Its impossible to take off front panel. Outside part is welded with inside part 😞
