HHRs need you to lift up the window, take off the door trim panel and watershield to work on the door. Before you can unlock the outside door handle, you must pull off the small cover piece to find the retaining screw, then unscrew it. Twist the handle toward you to lift off the cover, then free it from the inside fixture. Look closely at the seals around the outside door handle and swap them if they show damage, just follow these same steps when putting them back. Pulling the cable lets you take off the inside handle, and putting it back as you take it apart is how you put it back. Before getting to the Door Latch Assembly and handle reinforcement, peel back the outside door handle and unscrew its mounting plate, then remove the Door Latch Assembly's attaching screws. Simply pull out all the parts together-rods and electrical connector included. To take the door lock cylinder off, push the Door Latch Assembly and outside door handle reinforcements out of the way, move the locking clip sideways, and pull the cylinder. Be sure the lock cylinder snaps in before you attach the locking clip. To take out the base of the rear door, work as you did for the front Door Latch Assembly-start by lifting the window, then pull off the door trim panel and watershield. Take out the door handle's two screws on the outside and spill the connection between the handle and latch rod. Unscrew the handle and wires on the smaller rear doors in coupe versions. To take off the top Door Latch Assembly on the door, open the door, detach the top interior plastic trim, and unscrew the bracket screws. To remove the lower Door Latch Assembly, peel off the trim panel and watershield, then unscrew it to release the latch that fits with its cable. There's no need to change steps when putting back the handle and Door Latch Assemblies-they go back where they were removed from.
