I really want to put the chrome door handels off the 2002 onto my 2003. Anyone have any experience with this? I assume it is probably a real bitch.

I think it'd be pretty easy. If take the inner door panel off, you can get to the two bolts that hold the door handle in. Looks like you'd have to replace the entire piece, not just the handle section.

Any ideas on what the door handle assembly would cost?

Looks like they are only about $30. I may be wrong. Might want to call the dealer.

Looks like it may be a little more work to get them replaced.

Sorry, I am a dumbass because I didn't specify. I am talking about the EXTERIOR door handles. The 2003 has body color and the earlier models have chrome.
