: Mikey- : I dont think that the fronts would fit, I think the trim portion of the rear handles are longer but thanks for the offer. : Dan- : : Is it just the handle or the trim piece that you are painting? I have two front doors in black. If you just want a handle I could send you one (for free) if the front's are the same as the rear. That's if you are worried about it coming out at all. : :
two inside mang.
: I'm hoping to paint the actual handle itself and the trim next to it
: I know there are 2 10mm nuts (I said bolts before because I'm stupid). I removed both of those.
: : : I was trying to remove the door handle from my pass side rear door but couldn't get it out. I wanted to take it out because the paint is really messed up on it and I figured it would be easier to paint if I just removed that part.
: : : I got the door panel off and found a 10mm bolt on the inside holding the handle and then one on the outside under a small cover. I also disconnected the handle from the latch assembly.
: : : I could get the bottom part of it to move easy enough but the top seemed like it was still stuck. I was trying to pull it down and out since it seems like you would have to with the spring on it the way it is.
: : : Is there something else I need to do before I pull it out or was I just not trying hard enough?
