Default handle remove

Got to tell you there is easy way to get orig. cheesy handles off.
I even read where some poor dude took seat out because pushing pin from bottom was so hard. I first tried this and then I looked down from top to see if clip had moved & saw I could stick a pair of needle nose in and grab clip & pull up Then went to other seat I had not messed with & saw I could grab clip& pull up DUH I felt like a dumb *** for spending several mins. trying to push clip from bottom. Well at least I didnt pull seat out. Just push side of seat towards inside of car & pull cheesy handle towards outside of car & you will see clip. No needle nose no prob. make a hook out of coat hanger. Vendor take note

I installed mine last night, I tryed moving the handle out so I could see down and snap went the plastic piece and off it came. I had no intention of saving the old handles so the install only took me about 5 minutes for both sides. If you dont want to break the plastic handles dont do it that way!! They look great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tom

I bet these in conjunction with a brushed stainless shift **** cap and a set of door HANDLES (the pulls to open the door, hint hint) would make for a very clean interior scheme start.

I.E..........what are the odds of having a door latch pull handle made???
