Help,
I bought my 16 year old boy(spoiled brat) a 99 Chevy Silverado Z71 truck for his birthday and the inside door handle on the passenger side is broke, I can't get the door panel off to look at it. I'm a single girl so give me a little slack, I have all the confidence to fix it but I don't want to break anything else in the meanwhile.....
Thanks in Advance,
Sherry

look for all the screws around the panel and theres i believe 1 or 2 in the middle by the handle...when you get all of the screws, lift the panel up and it should pop right off. welcome to the board by the way.

Oh, don't you also have to pull the triangular shaped trim off that is right above the door panel and on the inside of the side view mirror?

Well, I have never done it, so that is why I asked. I have read up on it though, and the trim just pulls off. Just grab and yank

Be sure to lift the panel UP and away, otherwise you'll break the little plastic clip that hold the panel on the door.
