----Driver door----
1. Open your Door and locate & remove 2 rubber grommets (black Rubber circles) right behind door handle. You can use a flat head..very easy.
2. unbolt the 3, 10mm bolts holding the door handle in. 2 on top hole and 1 on bottom hole. Be Very careful when unscrewing. Because screws can fall inside the door. So what I did was put plastic from a plastic bag alittle piece and put it inside the socket when unscrewing it will add some stickiness (ghetto) to hold the 10mm bolts easier.
3. pull up & out on the door handles. Drivers side is a little tough but be gentle.
4. You will see 2 wires. One for the Keyless entry and other wire to physically open the door.
5. unscrew the electronic key lock. There is a plate holding the button for keyless entry. Remove the plate held on by two screws. Be very careful the two screws has locktite.
6. Pop out the metal wire (simple) you will get what I mean when you see it.
7. Pat yourself on the back..hardest side is done.....(BAM CHICKAAA WAAAA)!

----Passenger door----
1. Same as Step 1.
2. held by 2 10mm bolts. One on top second on the bottom hole.
3. pull up & out on the door handles.
4. Pop out metal wire.
5. Same as step 5.

Once painted just do in reverse. Also when you have the handles off you will have 2 wires inside the door. One for the physically opening the door and the second for your keyless entry. Make sure to pop off the button on the keyless entry so you can paint that. Because you dont want a black handle for ex. And have the ugly silver button. It is really simple just pop it off literally lol.

Any questions or concerns please let me know. Ill try getting pictures up of the whole process. Some of steps might seem confusing but when you actually do the process on the car you will see what I mean lol. Hope this helps.

+ Rep If I helped in anway
