Door Handle

Post by CaptSquid »

I know it's been discussed ad nauseum, but I can't seem to find the Replacement Procedures.

My driver's door outside handle finally bit the big one. There are two available through the stealership, one for $60, the other for $90 (!) and one that I've found on-line for $17. Any recommendations?

No way I'd pay 90 bucks for one. Before shaving I always picked mine up at the JY for 3 or 4 dollars.
Have always heard the Ebay units were no good.

Try searching http://www.Car-Part.com. They have some listed as low as $10 and most of these places will ship.
