2G Driver door handle ?

[one8e7GSX]

So my driver door was ripped off in a attempt of theft on my 95GSX and by the looks of it there is no visible way to get the new handle in without some kind of muscle and problems. Can any one point me in the correct direction of a raise way to install ?

You have to take your inside door panel off it's like 5 screws. Then you can get to the back side of the handle and detach the clips that hold on the handle.

And a screw In the trim of the door
It's a bi*** but possible
I had problems putting in the new one as opposed of taking it off

Finally got the handle in but for some reason it is not catching or opening the door. Any further ideas ?

Another quick question. Will 95 ### panels fit 95gsx I'm assuming so ?

I had a similar problem with the door handle not opening or catching.. you have to get the rod that the handle pushes down to pop the door lock open adjusted correctly.all i did was put something like a zip tie or something in where the rod attaches to the handle to give it a little more travel. If you go to far the door wont latch. Its a pain...

I had the same issue when I replaced my door handle with a new used one. I could operate the door from the inside, but would not operate the door at all from outside. With the panel off of the door, peek toward the end of the door. There should be a metal rod that moves up and down when you pull on the outside door handle. Mine moved, but would not allow the door to open. I simply put a SS bolt I had laying around through the top portion of the loop where the metal rod meets the release mechanism for the door. The bolt was an m6 about 20-30mm. The door operates perfectly. I just slid the bolt through the loop. I did not bother to put a nut on the other side as I was already frustrated trying to put the bolt in that hold the handle from behind the glass.

Yes they would

Here is a quick diagram of what I did with the bolt. It is juvenile, but functional.
