Thanks for the video. I found it useful, but the part where you disconnected the cable leading to the interior latch wasn't clear; it looked like you jumped over it in the edit. I wound up just leaving the cable attached and leaned the door card against the door so I could complete the job. Surprisingly, I didn't break any of the plastic tabs removing the door card.
Where does the loose end of the rod connect at the bottom of the door?
Thank you very much for the easy to use/watch video. Six month of procrastination for a one hour job. Just like you and your video showed. Thanks again.
Thank you for saving me $435.34 I appreciate it
Yeah, do you know the difference between a door handle and a latch mechanism?
Thank u very much for making this video!!! It made changing my door handle a breeze and I’ve been putting it off dreading it for a week now , lol. This video. Helped me and u took time to show and explain each step , thank you !!!
Hey! If you look up procrastination in the dictionary, you will see me! I finally got around to replacing the door handle on my Buick! It went very smoothly! None of the clips broke! Thank you for your well made video! No more tape on my car! Huzzah!
I've watched a couple of these videos. Yours has the best lighting & camera work. Also the "little details" regarding the insulation removal is appreciated. Thank you for posting this.
Thank you for this video. I was able to replace my mom's car's door handle, saving a couple hundred dollars. Unfortunately, it was unclear how you removed the black cable so I wasn't able to completely remove the door card and had to leave it attached. But so thankful for your video!
Mission complete! Thanks!!🖤
Thanks for the video. I got this done in 30 minutes. Only broke 1 clip
✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️ I really appreciate your visit to my channel, RPM! I'm happy to return you the digital love with a play *_in full_* (20 minutes) and a bangin' like #9!
It's so nice to see you guys still up-and-running! I hope all is well, and I wish you guys the very best for your upcoming weekend!
We are chugging along! Choo Choo
Excellent! It works, I replaced the handle on my 2007 Buick Lacrosse in about 45 minutes, the door panel clips was the more difficult part to remove. Thank you. I saved my self some money.
Thanks for the video!!!!!!! I am about to do this as soon as the parts store opens.
Need more light to see what you are doing
I live in hot Arizona mine broke and I just JB welded the well nuts back onto the door handle just taking care not to weld the bolts or any other parts. I did it just from where the handle pulled away from the door no tools required. I still ordered a new handle so when it cools off I can fix it the correct way. Works fine for now has been holding strong for a month and a half and still good.
I did the same for a while it worked
Thanks, broke my daughters handle off during the recent sub zero temps. I had trouble getting the harness to disconnect so I had to work at a funny angle but managed. Good as new.
Excellent tutorial - thank you. Have a 77 YO friend who has been entering her car from the passenger side for years. I'm gonna fix that, with your help.
I have been dreading this repair on my 2006 lacrosse. It broke two years ago for the exact reason you said. It has been taped on since. It looks like crap, and it still takes two hands to open the door carefully. Wish me luck!
Yeah! I've probably done that a thousand times before installing stereos for 10yrs LOL removing door panels that is !Great job guys!
J's Crazy Cutz, LLC Forgot that was your old gig! How the diet change going brother?
@@rpmimprovementoutdoorservi9968 Its by far the easiest diet me and wife has ever done! I eat steak,eggs, bacon,real butter,salt and water that's it! I eat a few other animal products too sometimes like pork,deer,chicken and shrimp but, not a staple in the diet. A pound or two of fatty red meat daily is main objective. My aches,pains,depression has almost all gone away. I've lost 4 lbs and Christina has lost 9! She's gone from a 14 size pants to a 10 in just 2 weeks! All cravings for sugar and carbs are gone! Oh! We still have our coffee with heavy whipping cream. Gotta have that! Thanks for asking man! Take care!
J's Crazy Cutz, LLC That is great news! Really interested to see how things are a few months down the road.
Thanks for this video. My wife's Lacrosse's handle broke, and as always, I'm expected to be Mr. Fix it. Problem is, these days there's so much extra crud in the way, I'm always afraid I'm either not going to figure out what's necessary to get it done, what tools are needed and just how to navigate the process of the "new" problem. At 62, I'm amazed at how much I've learned doesn't pertain to these new vehicles. The totally plastic handle (except for return spring and the rivet that fastens it to the handle) is just disgusting to me, considering the price of the vehicle. How the car companies can get away with this (buyer ignorance or apathy, I guess), is beyond me. But thanks for making this an easier than usual repair. Nice job. I had to come back in and check to see what I was suppose to need the vice grips for, though. I used my fingers for the handle bolt removal, but I thought I must have missed a step! Thanks again. I appreciate your effort. It helped me out.
Glad to see we could be of service. Thanks for the support.
you should have changed the rod plastic clip. They wear cause of the pulling open and closed on the handle, You can install a new handle but if the plastic clip is worn
the handle would have play in it. Those plastic rod clips suck, they should be made of metal..... Of coarse not,
Thanks so much for making this video. Feels great to have been able to do this without bringing it into the shop. Much appreciated!
Good work guys, thats quite the drawer of fasteners... love it man!
MC Yoder Landscape The former body man has a thing for fasteners and scrap metal lol
RPM Improvement Outdoor Services LLC that’s awesome, you never know when you can use stuff like that, Comes in handy!
Always good when you can do it yourself, Good job guys!
Upscale Lawn Care Monroe gotta save that money where ever you can. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.
That my friend is not a door latch it is however a door handle. The latch is buried down inside the door and is what actually holds the door shut.
Thanks for clarifying 😀
Great video. I was wondering how the rod would come out.
Thanks for watching! 👍💯
Great video. What if handle is broken on outside and ALSO cannot be opened from inside?
Easy to follow, even for a non-mechanical person like me.
Awesome! If I want to order clips do you have a part # for them? 2005 Buick LaCrosse
I don't
At 4:30 you skip over the part where you’re finicking with the cable, and skip to where it’s just, off. You don’t explain how to take it off, but you explain how to put it back on
Can't I just super glue the bolts and stick them back into place?
What do you do if you can't get the door open because the linkage seems to not be connected?
Hey man I followed this video to a T and I ran into an issue. It's worth noting I lost one of the screws for the door handle.
Anyway, After installing the door handle on my 09 LaCrosse I tested it and the door opened, I then pulled on the latch cable from the inside and it opened. After installing the door panel the door wont open from either the inside or the outside. I know when I installed the door panel I accidentally locked the door but manually unlocked it. It's acting like it's locked. Now when I try to pull the exterior door handle it makes a noise like the spring is under a lot of tension.
The car sat for two years so I originally thought the latch cable might have bound up but I remembered that the door lock actuator would stick in hot weather. Does it sound like my locking mechanism is jammed?
Awesome job! You never know when you will need to know this process so this is great to know.
nice job - but i can't do it - so i called Spitzer in lorain ohio yesterday - they said they will call me on Mon. to get more info - do you think i can still use it - - how much do you think they will charge
How much did they charge?

Awesome job bro! My friend has an 05 Lacrosse with the same issue we were gonna try an tighten the bolts but it's cheaper to just replace it.
🙏👍
