Is there some sort of secret way to take the interior door handle and window wind up off? I've undone the screw and tugged a bit, but i don't want to tug to hard and brake something

Thanks,
Josh

RUST, and 60 or so years of krud. Spray with some lube, wait a few days and repeat. It will come off! Make sure the screw is backed out enough, or just take it out all of the way.

I believe there are TWO screws on the interior window handle, or the door latch handle, I can't remember which. One covers the other. Check inside the hole to make sure.

I had the same experience Tom describes. 2 screws. I had the door off when I removed mine or it would have been pretty hard to see the second screw.

....a long slim screwdriver seems to work better for me.

I had a bunch of old, cheap screwdrivers laying around, so I took the skinniest one and ground it down to fit. That old wooden handled thing comes in handy for a lot of odd jobs.
