First you have to pry off the triangle piece of the panel by using a flat head screw driver, do this by prying it from the bottem up. Then, take out the 2 screws in the door handle. Sometimes this is done easier with a drill because those screws can be pretty tight. After that start prying the door panel out of the body with a flat head screw driver or a crow bar. Start from the bottem of the panel and work your way to they top. It will make a pretty terrible sound when your pulling them apart but don't worry, that's normal. Then you can lift the panel strait up once all of the pop rivets are out. The next step requires a rivet gun so make sure you have one handy. Once the panel is off there are 2 bolts and a rivet holding the handle to the body. Grind or cut off the rivet. Then disconnect the rods going to the back of the handle that allow the door to open, this can be a little but of a pain. Then just stick the new handle in put a new rivet in there (of you cant find a rivet any old bolt that can fit in there will work) and reconnect the rods and snap the panel back on.
Hope this helped and good luck!

Take it to the dealer, this is not an easy job. Take it to the dealer, this is not an easy job. I did replace the outside door handle on my 1999 suburban drivers door. It is not a easy job and was very frustrating. Remove the inside door panel. The door handle is held on by two screws. There are also two rods to deal with. one for the lock the other for opening the door. Do not get them mixed up. I was able to get the new handle in with the door lock only partially in the new handle. Then with the new handle screwed in I was able to push the lock all the way into place. Test and replace door panel.
