Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.

In this video, we're going to show you how to replace an interior door handle on this 2005 Ford Focus. We show you on the driver side, but the passenger side is a similar procedure. The only tools you'll need for this is a flat blade screwdriver and a T20 Torx driver.

Pry out this screw cover and then remove the T20 screw inside of there. Then pry out on this panel and slide it forward and off the door handle. Now pull straight out on the door handle and then slide it forward. Lift this cable out of the door handle and unclip it.

Take your new door handle, re-clip the cable, and then push that top part back into place. Now you want to put this tab back into that slot, so slide it back into place and then push the front back in. Then take this panel, slide it back over the door handle, and push it back into place. Then replace and tighten up that T20 screw and push that cover back in. You're all set.
