wow...lots of writeup, but no pics of install.

 

^ yeh i had meant to take pics but forgot haha

 

yeah that is the dumbest thing to do.. just in case something that you taped on falls loose.. it eventually will because when you use that latch, it will tend to bend more as you pull the door handle more frequently.. just bend that latch on the locking mechanism upwards and you will be good to go...

 

bringin this back from the dead to see if anyone has detailed pics of whats been talked about in here..im probably gonna attempt to do this soon

 

does anyone kno that torx screw size? so i can buy that one size instead of the whole tool kit

 

Check post #21

 

this is was my first thread ever on CL haha...... installing the handle was a bi%ch

 

The front are piece of cake, but the rear one are pretty tough because you have to wiggle to remove the lock.

 

It's quite some work. Could take up to an hour per door depending on skills.

 

T30 Torx screwdriver..cool

 

fronts are easy, rears are slightly harder but its purely down to luck.

its a prety easy job. i found doing my suspension much worse, rears at least. id do handles again in a heartbeat over coilovers lol

 

where did you folks purchase the chrome handles?

 

i just bought mine from L-tunedparts.com I will be doing the install myself as soon as i get them in a week or two. I will try to remember to take pics to clarify things for future installers on these.

 

Um, I suppose these are it

Is this just the handle and covering, such that you have to use the mechanical parts from the existing handle?

 

Does anyone have pics of the other side of new door handles? I am trying to figure out which piece of mine broke...
