meier motor sports Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 so my drivers door has been tricky to open and some time close and all sorts of shinanigans, now its broke. iv had the interior door panel off and inspected but i didnt see anything. what i did see is that i can figure out how to get the exterior door handle off. its held on by 2 nuts which i can remove if the window is moved to different positions but i couldnt remove it. i think i need to remove the window glass and maybe the regulator. looks to be a pain. any one removed the exterior door handle and have any pointers tldr how do i remove the exterior door handle. and are the front and rear handles the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Energyblue98 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 front door or the rear door? they're different mechanisms... but there's usually a plastic part that breaks off the handle on the rear door, and on the front door sometimes those plastic retaining tabs that hold the bar in place gets broken.

meier motor sports Posted September 2, 2014 Author Share Posted September 2, 2014 the front and rear are different? they look like the same handle. was hoping to switch front to rear so i can use my front door till i can get the parts i need. i know about the plastic clips but i think that broke because something else is gummed up.
