    Question Help installing leather door pulls please!

    So I got all 4 doors off thanks to the two guides in the Knowledge Base. Now what do I need to do to install the door pulls? The guides stop after the door panels come off because they are guides for getting at the speakers. What do I do now? Thanks!

    Also, I couldn't get those tabs out without popping the centers in all the way. I guess I have to buy replacement pins now? How do I get the pieces out?

    To pop the centers partway in, the LX key works great... it only goes in far enough to pop the center, won't fit in far enough to pop it all the way out. But if it's too late... I think you hafta buy new ones.

    The door pulls should be easy to remove from the panels once the panels are off the car. I didn't do it, but I remember reading that it's just one screw into each end from the back of the panel.

    You have to take the control modules out, they just pop right out and the door pulls have a screw on each end. I can't remember if they are hex or phillips... it's been a while since I did my swap.

    Also you'll have to replace those tabs. Go to the dealer, they'll order them for you. I bought EVERYTHING even the green and white tabs for the top of the door and it cost me about $90 for all 4 doors. Didn't end up using hardly any of them as my buddy had some expirence doing that stuff and didn't break any more.

    Which reminds me, I still have to fix some of them on my drivers door.

    I just completed installing the door pulls but, like an idiot, I didn't take any pictures. Just like cplDaugherty said, you have to remove the control modules to get at one of the two HEX screws, one on each side. There is only one way the handles will go in due to the nipple that stickes out of one side if the handle. It was an easy job and only took about 1 hour for all four doors.

    Good Luck

    I got the door pulls from trademotion.com. $109.34 for all 4 shipped. Unfortunately I don't have the part number with me at work. I can check the Mopar boxes when I get home though.
