#23288, "#$#%*&#$^!!!! dam door handle"




          

Another victim of a broken door handle. I didn't even pull it hard and it broke. Is it worth taking apart and gluing it back together or should I just get a new one. I found them at OEM car parts.com for $60. Is it worth getting a used one or do you think it would break right away?

i got one at my local mitsu dealer for either 35 or 45, i forgot which. i tried doing exactly that, the spring on our handles is STRONG and jbquickweld didnt' hold it down (no matter how much i used) so get a new one. i'm actually going to mitsu to pick up some decals (the RS and GST one, i'm going to cut the T off and make an rsT)...yeh, i thought it was clever too, i could see how much they run down here and mail you one if it's cheaper (i know it's cheaper than 60$)

I didn't get your email. But yes, 1 passenger handle and 1 driver.

I use 2-3 day shipping and it is actually pretty easy to replace a door handle. I'm 6'6" so by no means do I have small hands and I still got it emoji
