Review on 🚪 Dorman 80369 Chevrolet Interior Door Handle - Compatible with Select Models by Nick Kussmaul

Revainrating 4 out of 5

No more glue needed, just replace the pin and grip instead

This product does NOT contain any glue and its instructions for use do not require use. Perhaps the idea of re-attaching it in the future and messing with glued screws didn't seem like the way to go. I followed the advice of some others here and just swapped out the button and pin. . It's very easy and I can't imagine the drilling and gluing taking less time than this route. Watch any YouTube video on how to remove the door panel. This is the most difficult part of the process. Make sure you have a T-30 Torx screwdriver handy. The factory plastic pin is larger in diameter than the metal pin, so you can't reuse it. Any slippage from the larger door panel holes and smaller pin seems to handle under spring pressure (no pun intended). It seemed as durable as the original. There is a product that only has a handle and this pen at a cheaper price. I didn't go that route due to the lack of Prime 2 Day Shipping. If it happens again on another door, I'll probably go that direction. I fixed it in a parking lot in less than 30 minutes. From unlocking the car to handing over the keys.
