door panels and switch trims

Goran · 02-05-2008, 03:13 PM

i've busted the grab handle on the door, both plastics where the handle bolts to the door have been busted off

and the door panel it self has cracked... do they sell this (grab handle) aftermarket or am i stuck buying a whole door panel?

also the wood grain around my window switches/lock/unlock have started coming unglued

any ideas? the passenger side woodgrain cracked from the edge through to the window switch

any ideas are welcomed

you can buy the grab handle stock...i think autozone might actually carry one...if not napa should but the door panel you can pull from a junker...woodgrain idk liquid nails usually works nice ive seen that shit hold leafsprings together

I LOOKED @ THE JUNK SET IN MY GARAGE FROM A '98.
THE GRAB HANDLES ARE PLASTIC SOLDERED ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE PANEL.
IF YOU KNOW HOW TO PLASTIC WELD, THEN GRAB A SET OF HANDLES FROM THE BONEYARD & RESOLDER THEM ON.
IF NOT, GET A PANEL FROM THE SALVAGE YARD.
AS FAR AS THE SWITCHES, EITHER LIQUID NAIL THEM, OR GET A SET FROM THE JUNK YARD.
AS FAR AS I KNOW THE WOODGRAIN COVERS ARE BARVADA & ENVOY ONLY.
THEY ARE DIFFERENT GRAINS & COLORS FROM WHAT I HAVE SEEN.
OR IF YOU DON'T MINE, GET A STOCK GREY OR TAN SET OF COVERS FROM A DONOR TRUCK.
THEY WILL BE A LITTLE EASIER TO LOCATED.
YOU'LL FIND THOSE IN ALL THE OTHER MODELS IN YOUR YEAR RANGE.
ie. S10, SONOMA, BLAZER, JIMMY
HOPE THIS HELPS.
AUTOZONE WILL ONLY HAVE GENERIC GRAB HANDLES ON THE SHELF
