OSIR Carbon Fiber Door Handle install tips??

Hey guys. My buddy and I have the whole door handle / window switches apart and are having a hard time installing them with the carbon fiber piece installed. Was wondering if anybody had any install tips on how to get these to fit? We have the service manual and instructions from TTstuff but they are hard to understand. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks

Where are you stuck?

Can't get them into the door panel, can't get them into the switch area, can't get the panel back in place, can't realign the bolt?

Trying to get the window switch to line up in the silver piece so that the window will open and close. Thanks a lot!!

Did you remove the individual switches before removing the switch housing?

You may have damaged it...<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1224024.phtml">Check out this thread</a></li></ul>

Pretty sure I didn't break any pieces. Everything fits fine into place but I can't align the window switch if the handle is in. If the handle is not in the switch aligns perfect but I can't get the carbon fiber piece in. Thanks again.

YEAH!! read the DIY install and took the switch itself out of the assembly, put everything together with the handle installed, popped the switch through the bottom, SHABAM PERFECT!! Thanks again Tyler!! Can't wait to get my intercooler in the mail now!! Side mounts and everything is off waiting for this beast to go on! Thanks again!!
