Replace RHR outer door handle

Hi Guys,

Need to replace my RHR outer door handle on my Kakadu. (kids broke it)
I have a sourced the part from Toyota and they said it was easy.
I cannot figure out how the heck you get it out.
Anyone got any info they can shed on the subject?
I can't find any info on here at all.
It would be much appreciated.

Preety easy to do. When you open the door there is black round rubber gurment. Remove it than there is a screw holiding it. Unscrew it n dont let it fell down in the door. Otherwise have to remove the door trim to get that screw. First small part of handle will come out than rest. Hope this help.

Hi Skprado,
You are talking about the front door handles. The rear door handles don't have the grommet.
Thanks anyway.

Hi the precess will be the same. If no rubber grommet than remove door trim. You will figure it out.

I did. The lack of room and hard to see it is an issue. I spent 2 hours trying to see how it would come out to no avail. Off to Toyota I go...
