Default Removing rear door handles (classic)

I'm in the process of changing all the exterior door handles on the Impreza for colour coded ones.

I managed to do the front easily but I'm struggling with the rear handles.

I've got all the the door cards off and I can see the two bolts holding them on, however the one at the very rear of the door skin is so tight I can't get a socket in there.

Any tips?

Undo the door latch mechanism fella(2 or 3 posi screws and undo the central locking motor bolt then slide the whole lot slightly towards the right) to get at the rear nut that holds the handle on.

Cheers mate, will give that another go (tried to remove them yesterday but they were so damn tight). Will spray some WD40 on see if that eases things up.
