- This is a simple and straight forward fix that you can do your self even if you've never worked on your car before.
Tools you need are:
-Philips head screw driver
-Flat head screw driver (for prying open panel and releasing clips)
-10mm socket wrench with 3inch or longer extension

Thank you so much for making these DIY videos on the 1st gen Tacoma, they are invaluable. I appreciate the attention to detail.
I replaced mine twice with amazon ones. Each lasted 4 months or so. Ended up with a toyota oem one and its been good for 2 years now
Same. The amazon ones don’t last. I’ve been through 3 sets.
Awesome. Thanks for this. I've got a '98 with 2 bum handles. Looks like an easy Saturday project.
Yes! quick fix and i think they sell two packs as well.
Perfect timing. Mine broke a few days before you posted the vid.
Ha love that
I will be doing the passenger door in the morning.
thanks for the tips
This was super helpful. Couldn’t help but notice do you have an aftermarket radio? What brand is that looks neat if so…
Really appreciate this video. Well done!
Usually the door handle fails because the latch assembly is failing. Replace the assembly with the handle for a complete fix. I always use OE because it's so much better.
I was having a issue with my lock for a while, it turned out my key was just a little too worn after 20 years of use, so I switched to my spare key and haven’t had any issues sense.
Awesome repair
My issue on my 04 is with the door lock. When the door is unlocked and I pull the handle to open, the action pulls the lock back down. So I either have to put the key in to unlock it again or reach through the back door to unlock it. Very aggravating. I wonder if replacing the handle will work?
Oh that’s weird, maybe the metal bars that pull the lock and latch are hung up on each other
Dude thank you so much. I never had to do this before so now I look like a stud hahah
Haha awesome
I see this video is 1 yr old, how are you satisfied with your door handles
For mr overland you have a email i got a few ?? Bout a lift im tryn 2 do and wondering if my uca will work or if i gotta get some fancy arms
Well done ... Thank You
Good job!!!.Thank you!!!
Nice work! On an unrelated note I've got to know what pants you are wearing? Love the pockets in the front.
Instead of using a screwdriver, try using a skinny putty knife. Like 1 inch width or something. Less chances of breaking anything.
it took me a hour and 1/2 guess. Helpful Tip use some Needle Nose Pliers on the Clips.
much easier .The screw driver did not work!!
I have manual Windows
👍👍👍👍👍
It is not the same in my experience.
So far it’s working well. Only time will tell
