Resurrecting a thread from the dead….

I have this problem with the expanding nut already pictured, it’s behind the drivers door handle. The screw no longer bites into the block, so need to replace it.

The black outer ring is still attached to the white plastic block, but I’m looking for ideas as to the best way to remove the expanding nut from the door?

I think it’s too risky to drill and wondered if a simple 2 pronged trim tool can be used to lever the nut out. The worry is the black outer ring separates leaving the white block stuck in the door.

Any advice and suggestions would be very much appreciated everyone !!

Cheers

Did you sort this? I need to replace two of these and having got the replacements here, I cannot work out how they go into the doors.....

Maybe it will become clear when doing it, but any help would be great!
