I just got a pair of chrome door handles, and im waiting on my woodgrain covers to come in. How hard is it to install the door handles? It looks like its simple from looking at the door handles but I havent taken a look on how to remove them.

 

it's not too bad. you have to remove the door panels, which isn't all that bad. i can remove door panels in under 2 mins each.

it's pretty straightforward putting in the new handles. you remove the door panel, remove the 3 screws on the old handles, and have to remove the rods attached to the back. (btw, move that clear plastic stuff out of your way) iirc, the biggest pain was putting those rods back on the back of the new door handles but it really isn't too difficult or bad at all. goodluck, and if you need pics from the fsm or something, let me know.

Thanks guys, I just did it. im really really cold my hands are numb. It was pretty easy I was doing a door per 3 min. Then I installed my new pedals. Im just waiting on my woodgrain covers to come.

 

I used the chrome door handles from an Altima, which are very similar, but not exactly the same, as far as latching on to the metal plate inside the door. I hade to MAKE them fit. But it did come out looking great.
