Hi, I’m Mike from 1A Auto. We’ve been selling auto parts for over 30 years!
To remove the grab handle pocket, take our plastic prying tool. You can get these from 1AAuto.com. You go underneath gently, and kind of push it in and catch the metal tab. Push it in and then up, and it should pull right out. You might need to do the same thing on this side, but sometimes it'll pop right up. There's two metal tabs there—it comes right out. Now remove the Phillips head screw that's inside here, using a Phillips head screwdriver.
Take that right out. Open up this little cover here to get the screw that's behind it using a small flat bladed screwdriver. Just pop it open. It's a Phillips head screw in here, remove that. Pop this cover off so you can actually go up here with the plastic prying tool. Kind of pry it up, and it's going to pry off the bottom the same way. And then it's going to pull out this way, unhook, probably have to open up this lever. So you're unhooking it from there too.
Door trim is clipped into the metal part of the door, so I'm going to need to get in here. And pull it from the clips. If you can't get your fingers underneath here, use the plastic prying tool. Can wedge the plastic prying tool in between the plastic and the metal, find your way in here, and slide down. I like to start at the bottom. Use a plastic prying tool, a bigger one.
Find your way underneath like that and then just pry out. Go along the edge, and then once you can get your hands in there, then you can start to pull out the rest of the clips. What's going to happen is it's going to lift up like this and the top of the door clips over the metal part. We'll lift it straight up. Now you need to unplug. This is the power window switch so you're going to have to reach under here. Find the lock. It’s on this side, push it in, and pull it out.
To remove the inside door handle there's a single 10 millimeter bolt here. Use our 10 millimeter socket extension and ratchet to remove this bolt. Actually a self-tapping bolt. Put that aside. Push this back, and it will unhook from the door panel. Has these two hooks here. Now we can unclip, this is lock cable, the white one and the door pull handle's the green one.
Start with lock one. Put your finger and thumb like that, and just pop it straight up and then unhook it. And with the green one, do the same thing. Pop it up and then unhook it from the handle and take the handle out.
To remove the vapor barrier—it's stuck on with this butyl tape here. It's sort of this black gluey substance that's forever sticky. So you can peel it and then take a razor blade so you don't tear the plastic. You can cut the black butyl tape, and then pull the plastic away. And this stuff is so sticky that if you're careful, you can reuse this vapor barrier without a problem. You can stick it right back to this stuff. So just go along the whole edge and do this.
Just need to unplug the speaker. Push in the lock, pull it out, and feed it through the opening in the tape. Feed it through the opening in the vapor barrier and then continue peeling it. Down to the end, doing my best to peel it off without totally destroying it. If it rips or tears a little bit not really a big deal, it will re-stick to this stuff. And so just carefully put this aside somewhere where you can reuse it.
Dual lock actuator is located up inside here. You don't have to unclip the door handle from the door lock actuator, it just kind of slides over it. When we unbolt and remove the door lock actuator, it will slide out from underneath door handle. Use a T30 Torx bit to remove the three T30 Torx screws that are holding in the door lock actuator. Remove this 10 millimeter bolt here that's holding in the door lock actuator. Using a 10 millimeter socket ratchet extension. Door lock actuator is loose, but I can see a clip here that it's connected, so I'm going to push in on the two tabs, help push the clip through the door opening and slide the door lock actuator out the door.
Whoops, I got it caught it around the window wrench handle. Now that I can get to it it's easier to unplug it. To unplug the door lock actuator, take a small or a narrow flat bladed screwdriver, push it into this opening here, and then gently pry outwards and at the same time pull up on the plug to unplug it. Use a T25 Torx bit and loosen the Torx screw back side of the door handle. It is captured, so it won't fall into the door. Remove this cap.
I'm going to use a plastic prying tool and put that aside. Loosen the screw on the other side of the handle. This is also captured T25 Torx. Sitting right in there. Push the door handle backwards and pull it out. Pull these little rubber grommets out of here. That screw's still attached. That screw actually holds in the plastic brackets inside the door panel. Pull out this grommet. Removing a screw in here. Pull the handle out.
This is the interior part. Place our door handle support. That goes inside the door panel. Put it back into position. Now it has a couple hooks: one is broken but one is still good. Going to hook it back there on the outside. Push this white grommet through so it holds it in position where I want it and then our rubber grommet here has a metal insert with threads that pops in there and I'm going to hold it in place so it doesn't fall.
Use the T25 Torx bit and just the extension to tighten the screw in. I'm going to tighten the screw into this grommet. It doesn't have to be crazy tight. That’ll do it there. Make sure that you reinstall this grommet. There's a couple little tabs on it and push it in place.
Take the door handle. It's going to slide into here and then go forward. Lock it in place. Reinstall this cap. So it has a thread, threaded insert that's going to be held in with that screw there. This is going to pop in. T25 Torx bit and extension, and I'm going to go through here and I'm going to hold the cap on the outside while I tighten this. And just tightening by hand is fine.
This is going to sit inside the door panel like this. There is a white forked piece that's on the door handle summit. It’s going to slide over this. So as you maneuver this into place, going to go in this way. You have to maneuver it past the window channel. It's a little tricky to get in there, but once you get it you're fine. So there's this clip here, this push clip, going to put it up into place. I'm also going to try to make sure it goes, it should slide right into the white forked piece. And bring this back. There's the push clip. That will hold it in place for me temporarily.
We're over that lever. So make sure that the child lock comes out of this little grommet here. You just have to double check that it's not engaged or engaged if you want it. Get this screw started. Hold it in place where I want it. I'll start the T30 Torx screws. So I'm going to install the three of those. Tighten them up. Once you feel them getting tight, just stop. Tighten the 10 millimeter bolt here. Plug the electrical connector back in. It'll click when it locks in place.
To reuse your vapor barrier, you can see that these two holes match up with these two holes here and then these two holes here match up with these here. Don't worry about it if it's a little torn up. You can still use it. We're going to guide these wires through this opening so we can get to them afterwards, and then these will go on the outside of it. I'm going to start it right here. Stick it right back into that butyl tape and just push it right in all the way around. It should re-stick, this stuff's like super sticky. Those go on this side just like that. Goes on much easier than taking it off.
Reconnect the door handle. This white cable will go on the top so these grooves that match these grooves over here and we'll just hook this up. This is for the door lock and then push it in place. And the one for the pull handle. Get that part, and you push it through. And it hooks in, and then push the green into there to lock it so it won't come out. And get this lined up. These two hooks here are going to hook into the panel just like that.
Reinstall that self-tapping 10 millimeter screw. Get it lined up. Looks like it's tight. There's our door handle. One of your door clips stays stuck in the door. You take your clip puller tool and just put it in here, pop it out and push that back into the door panel and reuse it. These clips sit in here just like this so just find the one that's missing. Put them back in place, just slide it in. Now you can reinstall the door panel. Plug in our window switch. Just goes up from the bottoms, it's keyed, it only goes in one way. The lock is kind of facing the outside, goes in it will click when it locks into place. Lift up our door panel, the top is curved, it's going to hang on the door panel just like that so start it up top.
This doesn't matter if the window's up or down for this. Sits all the way down because that should go over the pull handle freely. Get it lined up. Start to push it back in on the clips. We'll reinstall the Phillips head screw.
Reinstall this trim cover, it does have a hook so you have to lift out this handle and slide it in and then kind of hook it and then it's got these tabs on both top and bottom that will push in and over the plastic. Reinstall the screw. There we go. Push the door back in. Reinstall the little pull handle. There's an arrow, points outwards so when you flip it this way the arrow will be pointing this way. Just push it right back into place.

Hi, I’m Mike from 1A Auto. We’ve been selling auto parts for over 30 years!
Open the door. To remove the master window switch we're going to use the plastic trim tool. You can get these from 1AAuto.com. Otherwise, you'd have to use a flat bladed screwdriver, and you could damage your trim with the hard metal. These are nice, soft plastic, and then kind of get underneath here, it's a little tight fit, and kind of slide it to the middle. There's a clip, we're going to push in this way, and at the same time pry up to pull the master window switch out of the door panel. Put this aside here. Now you can unlock the connector. There’s a tab here, push down and pull out on the switch to pull it out. Put the master window switch aside.
We need to remove this little door handle pull. This little pocket here, where your hand goes. Use the plastic prying tools to kind of go underneath to kind of catch the metal and then pop it up, just like that, and if this side doesn't come, you have to do the same thing, there's a similar clip, pop it up, pull it out, see what you were doing is you were going underneath, pushing in on this metal tab to unlock it.
To remove this black trim cover, take the plastic prying tool, reach in here, just pop it out, and pull that right out. You need a small flat blade screwdriver to carefully open this little door here to expose the screw that's behind it. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the screw. Take the plastic prying tool, there's a slight opening just above the lock, push the plastic prying tool up, and then pop it up off, pull it down so it pulls down from this one. That needs to go out this way, and then you'll have to move this. So you're unhooking it by going this way, and then you're just feeding it off the lever.
To remove this push clip, actually push in on the center. It unlocks it, and then you can take the other side of your plastic prying tool and get underneath it and pry it right out, then to reuse it. Just push it right back out through, and put that aside. Remove the Phillips head screw that was inside our opening for our little cup here, pull handle. Using a Phillips head screwdriver.
The rest of the door panel is held on with clips along the edge. As you pull this off you will need to unplug the courtesy light that should be the only thing that is plugged into the door panel. You just kind of reach underneath, and if you need to, you can use a plastic trim tool, but there's a little bit of a finger hold here I can get it in, get my fingers in, and pull out. And we're going to lift up off of the steel part of the door. The door panel kind of hooks around the top, so lift up and straight out. And the only thing plugged in, I can turn this, so I can see it, is the courtesy light. You’re going to push in on the lock, pull it right out, and we'll put our door panel aside.
To remove the door handle and lock, there's a 10-millimeter bolt here. Remove that, take the bolt out, and pull this off. Slides out of the steel panel. There's a hook here and a hook here. Flip it over. The door opening handle is this green one and it's going into the handle there. We can pull it pulling out the plastic. Just pop it straight out and then when it comes out, you'll just push the cable up and out. And then for the lock one, it's the same thing. We're just going to push it up and out and then unhook it.
To remove the vapor barrier, it's stuck to the door panel with butyl tape. It's forever sticky. You want to take a razor blade and sometimes you just kind of have to gently pull it and then cut it a little bit. We'll get it to separate. You should be able to reuse the vapor barrier, and it will restick to this butyl tape. Just work your way all the way around, peeling and cutting it. Just going to feed this harness out of the opening here. Be very careful. You can lay it sticky side up and reuse it.
There's two actuator rods inside here. So the one with the yellow moves whenever you pull the door handle. The red one is for the lock cylinder. So reach down. Unlock the red one. Push it up and then pull it out. Pop this cap off with a plastic prying tool. There's one of the T-30 torx screws. We need the plastic prying tools. Here’s the lock cylinder assembly.
Pull the door handle towards the back of the car, and then lift it up and out. Take these little gaskets off so they don't get lost.
This is our original painted door handle, and our door lock cap that's painted. 1A Auto you can get a chrome handle. This would be the same for all the door handles, so it has a block off cap where you don't have a door lock. It has one for a door lock. You can also get these in paint-to-match, but we figured we'd show you the chrome. It can make the car look nicer if you want to.
We're going to reuse these painted ones, but it's really easy to swap these, just put this in place of this one. To swap this cap off, take your flat bladed screwdriver and just gently pry up on that. Pops right off. Take the new one and those slide into place. Should clip right over. You've got a chrome one instead of the painted one. Don't forget to reinstall your grommets. These go underneath the door handle. These have little clips, or little tabs. They're going to slide in, stay in place. This one will go this way.
Install the door handle this way. At the same time we're going to kind of set it here and go in here. Push it in, and then it's going to push forward. Will lock in place. The lock cylinder's going to go in. Push it in place. Hold the lock cylinder by hand, and then tighten the Torx screw. Put the rubber plug back in. I'm going to reach up inside the door. Going for the red one here. We're going to push it into the opening, and then push that down. It'll lock in there.
You're going to reinstall the vapor barrier. You can tell by the orientation of the holes which way it goes. So these two holes match up with these two here, and then these two openings match up with these two here. So I know that'll go up and also the slit there is to go around the cables. We're going to feed the wire through for the courtesy light. I'm going to start in this corner and this stuff is just always sticky. Put it back in place and just push it down. It'll want to stick to everything. I'll lift up the cables underneath, kind of line it up with the holes and just go along the outer edge, and push it right back in. I mean, don't be worried about getting it perfect. That's good enough there.
Reconnect the inside door handle with the lock one. So, the white one went in the other one. It just hooked in and then push right down in. The green one that hooks down in place there. It looks like this actually is broken a little bit it. It'd have a have kind of a tab over it that would lock it. Push it down in place. Just like that. There's two tabs here, they're going to go in to the door panel this way. Push it down. There are two openings in the handle. This one is for when the door panel is on and the screw will go through that, and the capital go over it. This one is the one you access with the door panel off, and the 10 millimeters self-tapper will go in here.
If one of these clips get stuck, you can just take a trim panel tool, pull it in here, pop it out and put it back in your door panel and reuse it. This went in down here—kind of push them in place. Plug in the courtesy light and there we go. The top of the door panel is kind of curved—it's going to hook over the metal frame, so I'm going to start by going up in here. It doesn't matter if the window is up or down. Hang it over it, and then we'll get it in place. Make sure that your master window switch harness is accessible, and now we can push it into place on the clips. It will snap into place. Just go around the door, and push them in place. Put a push clip back in.
Reinstall the screw that was under the door pull handle. Reinstall this door handle pull, the arrow points toward the inside, push it in, just like that. Reinstall this cover. It has a hook that's going to hook into here in the black plastic, so we're going to lift that up and slide it this way. Get it hooked first, and then push this in and we reinstall the screw.
Reinstall this black A-pillar cap. It just slides in place and then snaps in. Put the harness back in. It will click when it locks in place. There's a tab here that will slide underneath, and then this metal tab is going to push into this opening here.

What's up guys? I'm Andy from 1A Auto. In this video, I'm going to show you how to replace the rear outside door handle on this 2010 Toyota RAV4. If you need this part or other parts for your vehicle, click the link in the description and head over to 1AAuto.com.
I'm going to take a trim tool and I want to get underneath this bezel right here. Slide this up, slide this out of the way and then disconnect the connector right here, just push down, disconnect the connector. Now, you don't necessarily have to take this off to take the door panel off. It just makes it a lot easier to disconnect the connector like this rather than while you're fighting and fumbling with the door panel.
Now, we want to take this cover out. Just take a trim tool, get underneath here and there's some clips that hold that on. Take this cover off right here. Sometimes you can just grab it with your fingers or you can get the trim tool underneath there, try to rotate it off. There's clips on there, the bottom and the middle and on the top. Now, there's three screws. There's one right here and two right there. I'm going to use a Phillips head screwdriver. Take these screws out, just grab it, and then these two and this last one. Take a magnet to get the bottom one out and, remember, these two are different than that other one.
Now, you can use some trim tools. I always like to start from the front of the door panel closest to the car in case you scratch anything and just go all around. There's just some push pins that hold the door panel on just like that, slide up the door pin. This handle should slide off here, should just be clipped in. Here we go, just slides down. We're going to take this inside door handle off. We want to take the cables off the handle, so disconnect this cable right here at the bottom one, happens to be the green one, which is the lever side, and the white one is the lock side. Slide it up and then slide the retaining ball out. Same with the white one, slide it up, twist it and slide out the ball. Disconnect this connector right here, goes to the door latch assembly.
Now, we're going to peel back the vapor barrier. You can take a razor blade or a utility knife and just cut some of this Butyl Tape. Generally, it'll stick to itself afterwards when you go to put it back on. If you have to add more, you can always add more Butyl Tape. If you're doing this in hotter weather, it's going to be a little bit easier to peel back. I just want to pull those cables through and then that wiring harness, just so I can peel back on this a little bit more. Just going to disconnect this speaker wire just so I can take the vapor barrier off completely, just so it's out of the way. Sometimes you can just fold it out of the way, but if it's in your way, sometimes it's just easier pull it off completely.
There we go set this aside. I'm going to take these screws out right here. I'm going to use a T30 socket and ratchet, take those screws out. Now, I'll just take this latch out, just slide in and you slide it down. I'm going to just slide the cables this way. You want to try to get the cables around this window channel. It seems like it would be easier to just take this channel out but this window channel goes all the way up, so we don't want to take that out if we don't have to. Slide the cables this way. You can slide the latch out just like that.
I want to take this cover off on the outside. It's kind of hard to see, but there is a screw that I need to loosen up. I'm going to use a T30 socket long extension and a ratchet. That's just going to go right there, just going to loosen it up. You don't have to take it out completely, you just have to loosen it up enough to get the cover off. Sometimes you need a little help with a trim tool, take a little trim tool and pry it out just like that. Then just grab the handle, you want to just pry it up a little bit and then slide it out towards the outside of the door. There's the handle.
Now, take the handle, just slide it... Actually, this part has to go in a little bit before the back part. Then, you kind of have to slide them in together and then just slide it towards the inside. Then, you can test it to make sure it works with the mechanism on the inside of the door panel. Take this cover, this cover is going to slide in position just like that. Then, we can tighten up that screw. Take that T30 socket and the extension, try to get it started and then we'll just snug it up with the ratchet. That's good.
We want to slide this back in position. I am going to try to slide these cables back through first. Have the cables come this way just like that, and just twist this around. All right, that worked. It wasn't the easiest, but it'd probably be easier to slide the latch mechanism in first and then slide the cables through. Either way you got them in. Then, we'll take these screws, get these screws started on the outside here. Take a T30 socket, snug these up and use a ratchet, tighten this down pretty snug.
Keep in mind that child safety lock, if you wanted this to lock and not be able to open it from the outside, you're going to want to have that in the down position or up position if you don't want that function. Keep that in mind so when you put it back together, don't think that your door latch is broken if you didn't put that in the right position. Another thing, when you're installing the latch, you have to have this lever lined up with the outside door handle. It's kind of hard to see, but you want to make sure that's lined up properly before you actually put the screws in.
Now, we want to take the vapor barrier, slide all the cables and all the wires in the correct positions you took them out. Sometimes it's easiest to get it started and then take all the wires and add those just like that. That's all secured. Now, reconnect the speaker wire, locking it in place. Reconnect the door latch, lock that in place. We want to reattach this to the cables. Slide the green cable into the bottom, that's the one with the handle, just like that. Then, through there, the white one goes on top just like that. Take the door panel, slide the handle right through here. There's two tabs right there on the top and the bottom. It's just going to slide into place right there.
If you check it from the outside just to make sure it looks good, that's right. Then, slide the top part of the panel in first, pull the wiring harness through here so you can connect the switch after. Then once the panel's lined up, you can just push it on. Take a Phillips head screwdriver, and these two longer screws are going to go for the handle part. Get those started first, snug those up. Then, this smaller screw is going to go right here through the handle. Snug it up, not too tight.
This cover is going to go over the handle, lock that in place. This cover is going to go right behind the handle, pull out the handle, line it up, lock it in place. Reconnect the window switch to the connector, line it up, lock it in place. Then, there's a slide right here that slides in the back, that slides like that, and then push down on the front.

What's up, guys? I'm Andy from 1A Auto. In this video I'm going to show you how to replace the outside door handle on this 2010 Toyota Rav4. If you need this part or other parts for your vehicle, click the link in the description and head over to 1AAuto.com.
We want to take this little cover off, or little grommet. Just take a trim tool, just get underneath there or even a straight blade screwdriver. Try to get that off. Pull that off, and then inside there there's a screw. Now the screws not going to come out, but you just want to loosen it up. I'm going to use a T30 socket, extension, and a ratchet to loosen that up. That loose, then we should be able to take a trim tool and just get underneath here. Just be careful not to scratch the paint. Just taking the key, just going to wiggle this a little bit.
All right. There we go. Wasn't all the way loose. So take the key out, just grab the trim tool, slide this out. Watch out for the gasket. You can slide it right out. Just a little tip for you. Sometimes it's difficult with this screw, it doesn't really want to come out when you're trying to take this housing off. Just take a little magnet, then you can grab the screw and then it just makes sliding this out a little bit easier. And you can grab the handle, and just slide it towards the outside of the door, and then it pulls right off. Don't forget the gasket. Take this cover off. Just take the pocket screwdriver, get underneath here, and it pops right off.
Here's the old part. Here's the new door handle from 1AAuto.com. This door handle happens to be a paint to match, so you're going to want to paint these to match the vehicle. It comes with the driver's door cover so that you have the key hole, or you can put this on the passenger side, or even any of the back doors with this cover. Get yours at 1AAuto.com, and you'll be ready to rock and roll.
Take the door handle, I'm just going to slide this into position. Make sure you have the gasket for this, so you can actually put the gasket there. All right. So we're going to angle this side in just slightly, get it past a certain point, and then you're going to angle the back part in, and then just slide it in. Oops. You got to push it down and then slide it in like that, then your gasket's all in position and it's working good. Now take the cover. I'm just going to slide this side in first, just like that, and then lock it in place. That's good. You can slide this back in position. Just like that. I'll take the T30 socket and the extension, and just get this screw started. And just snug this up, not too tight. Slide this cover back on. Lock it in place.
