![]() If I remember correctly the original ones are riveted in, so yes, you have to take the inside of the door panel off. You'll need a drill, and various screwdrivers and chisels, and also a hammer would be helpful.

![]() well, that was probably the easiest job i've ever done on my car, short of changing the oil
![]() just took off the speaker grill, armrest, and door handle bezel, then removed the door trim and my door handles were bolted, so i unbolted them, unhooked it from the rod and put the new ones on ![]() ahhhhh, i love it when working on the car goes right w/o any hitches ![]() ------------------ SHaFTed |

![]() tap it w/ a piece of metal, if it dings, then its metal, if it thunks, its plastic
also, you can bend them just a little w/ hand pressure if its plastic, just pull up reallll hard and you'll feel it bend a bit ![]() ------------------ SHaFTed |
