Has anyone removed their exterior door handles? How do you go about doing so? I need to get mines painted soon (from chrome to sterling mist). Thanks.
Phil

 

i believe you have to take the door apart from inside. When i had my doorlock replaced, they had to take the door apart from inside and work that way...

How do you actually get to it from inside though? I am looking at a pic of the door panel taken off, and it looks bloody confusing?!!?

 

Are you looking at the pics in the Haynes manual? If not, you need to get one.

$14 at AutoZone.

 

I would get one, but I cannot find it down here...(in canada we have canadian tire instead of autozone), and they dont stock it. are there pics to be found online, or can this manual be had online?
thanks

Hmm...too bad this one is not offered to Canadian customers. However I am sure I can find one on ebay.

 

Thanks, but it doesn't really show/explain how to remove the handles. I think however I will use these instructions to just remove the panel and see what I can do with the handle.

 

In Canada eh! Me too. I just purchased a Haynes Manual for my 1998 Maxima SE. I got mine from Lordco, out here in BC. Not sure what part of Canada you are from. You are right, they don't have it at Canadian Tire, I tried there first. I paid around $35.00 for it. The Haynes number is 72021.

Couldn't help but notice you used the word "bloody"!! Are you an Englishman too? Bloody ell!
Phil:

 

Lol...well I am pretty far from your side...out here in the east (Brampton Ontario Canada). I do not think we have the store Lordco. Do you think I can order it from the canadian tire, or they do not do such services? Perhaps a bookstore?

Bloody just happens to be one of my favourite words heh...I may have some english roots that I do not know about .

 

35.00 IS CRAZY! kingrukus i'll help you out if you want. i can purchase one locally and ship[ it to you the cheapest way possible. You just pay for the manual and shipping. I dont want any thing for doing this, like I said "i'll help you out" having a manual is really handy.

 

Sorry, FLAVOR247. That $35 was the list price. I got mine for $24.95. (That's Canadian $$, so about US$ 18).But that is awesome, if you are able to help out Kingrukus. Thats what is so great about Maxima.org. Friends helping friends.

 

That would be great! Thanks a lot. I will get in contact with you via e-mail.
