door handle replacements?

[isoldmyZ4atitan]

yeah i just purchased some black xe door handles to replace my chrome ones and i called a dealer and they told me it is very difficult to install. They wanted to charge 300.00 for the install. i laughed. I was wondering if anyone has installed or removed the door handles. If so how difficult of an install would this be. From what i hear from the dealers it is very difficult.

Took me 20 minutes. ALL Titan door handles are EXACTLY the same, only difference is outside cover, black or chrome. I ordered handles, popped covers off, popped covers off the one that came with truck and put on the new covers, done. Very easy mod.

I also just order the XE covers. Can you post some pics of the install as you figure it out?? Thanks

The hardest part to me was swaping out the mirror covers, ended up breaking two tabs on each cover removing them.
