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 the rear interior door handle on this 2003 GMC Envoy XL. It's the same part and similar process on the regular Envoys from 2002 to 2009. The items you'll need for this are a new interior door handle from 1AAuto.com, flat blade screwdriver, a 7mm and 10 mm socket and ratchet, and the putty knife.
Start off by prying up this little cover with a flat blade screw driver. Then, remove those two 7mm bolts. Stick a putty knife behind the door panel and slide it down until you find the first clip and pry out and reach in behind the door panel and just pull out around each clip. Once you remove each of those clips, you can pull the door handle back. Then just push this switch from underneath. It comes up and out. Then push the tab on the harness and disconnect it. You could technically do this before removing the door panel, but you're more likely to scratch up your door panel if you do that.
Remove this 10mm bolt. Slide the door handle forward and then pull it out, and then you want to just push this clip off this rod. Then, lift the rod up and out of the hole, and then, repeat that process with this lower one, and your door handle will pull free.
Take your new door handle. Starting with the lower rod, push it into that hole and then push the clip back onto it. Then, take the top one and do the same thing. Then push the door handle back into place and slide it back, and then, just replace that 10 mm bolt and tighten it up.
To replace your door panel take the small panel and push it back onto these studs. Then, push the harness for that switch back up through the hole in the door panel. Line up the clips on the door panel, and once you have them all lined up, just hit them into place. Reconnect the switch and push it down into place, and then replace those two 7mm bolts and tighten them back up. Now just replace the small cover, and you're all set.
