Okay we're back again for another DIY!


Interior Door Pull Handle (front/passenger side) getting sticky? I got us covered fam!

I believe the PN is 51419209216. Some places name the part "Support, pull strap, right", some places name it "Interior Door Pull Handle, Front Right"


Affordable replacement found on amazon/ebay





Here are the steps I performed:


Our sticky culprit



Pry off speaker grille


Remove screw behind


Pry leather cover



Remove 2 screws behind the leather cover


Remove 2 screws at the bottom of door panel


Pry door panel from all sides, go slow and "Feel" for what needs to be pry'd


These are the little clips you're prying


Slide door lock out of its hole






* * * to be continued * * *

The back of door panel should look like this


The handle is held on by 2 screws, remove them both



I used a flat head to push in the tabs, then pushed away from me to release it






At this point, you can pull it out



Side by side comparo


Install in reverse order, simple enough







PROFIT

Oh my goodness this is excellent! I have that problem on the driver-side, this gives me hope to find the part.

best of luck!
