Brought to you by 1AAuto.com, your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the internet. Hi, I'm Mike Green. I'm one of the owners of 1A Auto. I want to help you save time and money repairing and maintaining your vehicle. I'm going to use my 20+ years' experience restoring and repairing cars and trucks like this to show you the correct way to install parts from 1AAuto.com. The right parts installed correctly, that's going to save you time and money. Thank you and enjoy the video.

In this video we're going to be showing you how to replace the driver's side door handle on this '94 Toyota Camry pretty much the same as the passenger side as well, and the same as most '92 to '96 Camry's. Tools you'll need are a flat blade screwdriver, a Phillips screwdriver, and a 10mm wrench or socket and ratchet. We're going to start out by removing this trim panel up here. Just kind of put your fingers in behind. If you want, you can use a little screwdriver. It pretty much just pops out. See it has little pins that go into grommets there. Now you need to remove this bezel around your door handle. You do that by inserting a screwdriver at the top and prying up some and pulling out, and the same thing at the bottom. I'm prying up with my screwdriver and pulling out with my fingers. Then that comes out. A close-up of where you place your screwdriver in order to pry that bezel. Now you need to remove four covers that show screws. Basically, you just kind of pry these right off. I just kind of keep my hand over them because sometimes they'll go flying a little bit. There's another one right under here. Just kind of pry it out and then pull it out by hand. Then there's another one right down in here, same thing.

Now remove five screws. One, two, three, four, and then there's one in there, five. On the end of the door there are two pins. You actually push the center of the pin in and then you can actually pull it out. Here's a close up. Push in the pin and then use a screwdriver or your fingernail to pry those two pins out of the end of the door. Now there is four pins along the bottom of the door. I just recommend getting your hand underneath and giving a good, quick tug. Some of my screws came out of the armrest there. Now, you just lift your panel up and off. Then the last step is to disconnect this harness and there's a little button right here underneath. Press and work the connection out. If you have the up-level stereo with the tweeter in the door pull, you'll need to disconnect those. There are three bolts that hold the handle on. They do have a Phillips head on them so you could use a Phillips screwdriver if you wanted to. I personally prefer a 10mm socket with a ratchet and extension. Pull out on the door handle and there are little clips here. I'm going to flip that clip off and pull that down and then you can pull this out a little bit and you can pull this clip off. I'll use a flat blade screwdriver to help out here. Pull that down and out and there's your handle off. The top one there is our original handle which on this car it's fine.

It's not broken, but just to show you here's the new handle from 1A Auto. It's all the same. It's going to mount in the same. It comes with the clips and everything. It does have some graphics on it, lock and the arrow. I believe that's just from a later model car. This is a '94. I think in '95 or '96 they printed that on there. Obviously, to reinstall the upper one here is attached. So the rod that's attached here is your lock rod. So put that on the top. Just so you can see, I'll use my screwdriver to lock it. Put my other rod in and pull the flap around. Ready to hook things back up. Start our bolts in, and to put them back in usually a Phillips screwdriver works quite nicely to start them. Now I'll tighten them up the rest of the way with my 10mm socket ratchet. Tighten them up nice and firm. They don't have to be extremely tight but they need to be firm. We're just going to fast forward through putting the door panel back on. If you took it off, you'll probably be able to get it back on without too much trouble. If you do want to see this in real time for some help to get the door panel back on, just check out our other video for the Camry door panel installation and you can see that in regular motion.
