DIY: How to replace a broken outside door handle.

[gaj1967]

My girlfriends 99 had a broken outside door handle, I bought a new one and decided to take some pictures of the process. It wasn't very hard but it could have been easier taking about an hour in the nice New Orleans summer heat of about 85+ degrees.

The pictures should also help people that might want to replace a broken inside door handle, mirrors, powered door/window controls, etc.

I hope this helps many people and that they search for it from now on instead of asking right away. lol Like that's going to change.

Thanks Bhavesh. I just wish I had a video camera or I'd video it.

I needed this to remove the door panel because I had bent something on the inside when replacing my interior drivers side door handle.

Thanks a lot.
