New Door handes

SoCarZ71 · February 24, 2005

Installed a set of AMI's Billet door handles (chrome plated). I think it looks a whole lot better than those old plastic ones, matchs the theme of the bumpers and the mirrors.

Not bad for $80, huh? Link

Looks good. I've been wanting to do the same.

How hard was it to do this?

Not too hard. Took me about thirty minutes, start to finish, but I had some trouble figuring out how to get the door panels off. After that, the next most challenging part was getting out the factory push pin that held the old handles on (but the right sized drill bit makes quick work of it). My biggest complaint would be that they didn't come with instructions so I followed the Haynes manual (eventually).

Most people hunt down painted handle buckets when they install polished handles. But I have to say I really like the way the handles look on the black buckets....I think they go great with the black and chrome on the nerf bars.

I'm more of a fan of the Escalade Handles (painted with the chrome grab handle), but it doesn't look too bad on yours.

Order them from PartsZoneOnline.com. They are cheaper and the stealership will screw you. They come prepainted in quite a few colors. The part numbers are floating all over this board.
