Someone else did a homemade write-up for a temporary fix using string or something I think also. But $80 seems like the dominant price you'll be paying for a new one.


97 Eclipse RS a/t
Nakayama CAI
Custom Cat-Back Exhaust
Final Drive Gear Mod

thanks for the info. I got it at Tallahassee Mitsubishi for $57.23. $68 and change to my door. Great service, E-mailed and they E-mailed me back the same day.:thumbsup

My shit is broken. But it's my drivers side handle. I've bitched about this so much I'm just gonna say fuck it and leave this one alone.

mine broke at the start of the winter and god damn was i ever pissed. and satan wanted 65 bucks for a new one, anyways the install is more agravating than difficult, it took me about 40 min. you just take the clip off the window crank pull that off, take screw out of side pocket thing, take screw out from behind handle on inside, pull plastic behind handle off. pop loose all the retaining screws faceting the panel to the door frame, admire the ugly clear plastic insulation which is caulked on w/sticky black shit. Peal off and get ready for hell. Take clip off of top of locking mechanism on inside and pull that out of the way. Take the screws, i believe there are 2, one's really hard to get but take those out, it's obvous which ones they are. once they are out pull the metal hooks out of the white plastic clip and pull old broken shitty thing out. Take new one and place in the slot and take the metal hanger rod thing w/the 45 degree angle at the end and put that in the white hole and work the handle in, That is what releases the lock so be sure to do it right. Then put locking mechanism back in w/retaining metal bracket, screw 2 screws back in, seal it up and your good to go...now think twice before you rip that thing off again because once ur done w/this one you'll never open that door hard again. If you need any more help drop me an email ,

i got mine for free off a talon when i had to get a new power steering pump :)

$35 bucks to paint new door handle

Common problem i think...it just sux that my driver side broke while car running in school parkin lot w/ passenger side locked

i paid only 37.00 at the dealer and 30 to get it painted and installed

dealer quoted me $309 to fix a door handle
like $78 for the handle
then like 100 or something to paint
and like 100 something to install..how gay.

bought it from Bob Kise in texas at the Chrysler dealer for like 25 bucks and then got a professional paint place to paint it for like 40 bucks. oh yeah and install it.

What the Heck!!!!

I called Bob Kise yesterday and spoke with his partner/co-worker Robert and he quoted me $30 shipped.

Well I called back today to order it and Bob said it's gonna be $47.15 plus Shipping and it only comes in White now.

Sucks man - Does this sound right? I told him I was from ASOG/2GNT club.

Why would Robert quote me $30 and Bob $47.15??????

Thanks,

fuck mitsu and their cheap ass door handles... should be a damn recall.. ive replaced both now... for all that have broken door handles, you should all order them together and see if you can get a discount.. or at a minimum, get two ppl with different sides that are broken and order a set.. maybe there is a price break.

how aout a junk yard talon avenger eclipse use the same ones
