How do you replace the outside door handle on a 1999 Mitsubisi eclipse?
There are two or three 10mm bolts that hold it on. You need to
remove the door panel by removing four phillips screws on the outer
sides of the door (2 front, 2 back) and a fifth inside the handle
pull then just unclip it and unplug the wire harnesses (if power).
Have the window all the way up or make it easier, remove glass by
rolling it down partially until you see the two 10mm bolts that
hold the glass on and simply pull glass out upward. Look inside and
unclip retianer for the cylinder and unclip the rod. Now you have
access to all bolts. Undo them and gently pull handle outward
slightly rolling it to get the other rod through. I found it easier
to unclip that one from the outside once the handle is loose.
