- Wear safety gloves to protect your hands from sharp metal edges inside the door panel or on the handle assembly.
- Use proper tools to avoid damaging fasteners, stripping screws, or cracking plastic trim pieces.
- Support the door panel securely when removing or reinstalling to avoid strain on wiring or clips.
- Ensure secure attachment of the actuator rod or cable to the handle and latch to avoid accidental failure during use.

- Install the new handle by aligning it with the cutout in the door. Feed the actuating rod or cable through and attach it to the handle’s inner lever arm.

- Make sure the handle moves freely and engages the latch properly.
- Reassemble the door panel when installation is complete and reconnect the electrical components.
