Inside door handle replacement

Just a little fyi...

Both of my door handles on the inside were peeling the chrome trimming and had been for quite some time. After enough finger cuts and just plain getting tired of looking at the eyesore I went and purchased another set of handles from LMC Truck for $73.70 (includes shipping). I was a little set back on doing the repair because the inside panel of the doors need to be removed so my kit set on the table for almost a week. I went out today and decided I was going to tackle the repair and was very pleasant surprised that I was able to repair each door in as little as 10 minutes. Only 3 total screws to remove for each door. The handles were "plug and play" baby! They are an exact match of my old ones too. Can't believe I waited so long to do this.

Most everything on the interior of these trucks is child's play.. Just don't lose your screws, and don't pull on stuff so hard you start snapping off mounting parts.. Its all bs plastic

What's the part number of the handles?
