Dorman 77187 Interior Door Handle for 🚪 Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC Models - Gray Paint Match, Black Review

Fits my 1999 GMC Suburban perfectly and looks just like the original. The Dorman units (I ordered 2 for both passenger side doors) came with everything needed including plastic retaining rings to slide over the existing latch bars and handles. This is helpful as I've read of others that don't include them that sometimes detach from the old ones when you remove them. In general, an easy installation. There are many videos on YouTube showing how to change. Less than 20 minutes total labor per…

A year ago the inside handle on the passenger door broke. Apparently this is a general problem. I was able to find the correct replacement grip. Driver's side recently broke. I checked previous purchases and found a record of the first purchase. It also gave me the part number for the driver's side so I could order a driver's side replacement without having to look elsewhere. Both times the item arrived quickly and matched the Tahoe's interior perfectly. Both handles are easily interchangeable,

As another user mentioned I took out the broken piece of metal handle and put it in my old plastic suitcase because my 1997 plastic trim ring was a little tarnished and DEFINITELY didn't fit.

You will need a 3/16 bit and a 3/16 or large short rivet (1/2 inch) to hold the new handle in place. Also, when removing the trim ring, work from the back, top, or bottom and leave the front tongue as it is…

I have used Dorman products for decades, this door handle is orders of magnitude cheaper than an OEM part. abort. Dorman builds them because the originals have such a high failure rate that they can make money (a lot of money) by offering an alternative. The one I received wasn't very well assembled and the manual locking/unlocking lever was very stiff. I fixed this before installation by carefully removing the burrs with a file and sandpaper, but I didn't have to do that, hence the missing…

My son broke the original handle. As these trucks (GMT400 series) age, the internal links stretch and you have to pull harder and harder to open them from the inside. Before you start, I recommend that you buy a rivet gun. They're pretty affordable. Have a small assortment of rivets ready. On my Suburban 99 this is not easy to attach, I would have had a very difficult time getting to the metal door frame to hold the nut securely. The Rivet Gun made this a quick and easy fix. Your door lock…
