Say good bye to that ugly key hole.
I removed the inner window belt molding, it will help you later down the installation for more room to pull the window so you could unbolt the handle.
The inner belt molding removed.
You need to remove these 3 bolts off to take out the lock assembly.
Make sure you clear this opening, I’m not sure on other vehichles with OEM power door locks but I had aftermarket door lock actuators installed. If so go ahead and remove to clear it out of the way.
There are 2 bolts you need to remove so the handle is able to come out. (EXTREME FUN) especially if you have big hands. I suggest you mask your door around the handle so you don’t scratch it.
You need to open that clip up so it release the door lock link.
This is what it looks like once the handle is removed from the door lock link.
A view of the lock assembly from the inside of the door.
Another view of the lock assembly. You see that white circle clip, well that’s the one that goes up to the door handle on to the lock cylinder. I removed that one.
The link once its removed. I removed it for the reason if rattles or it gets stuck on something when I lower the window or so.
Go ahead and run the the link through the whole you made earlier.
I used a small zip tie to secure the link on to the door handle. You must find a way to secure this, or I’ll keep on falling off.
Once you secure the handle. Go ahead and install the handle back on and install everything back how it was.
And your finished. Repeat for the other side.
Thanks for looking, Enjoy.
