Icon2 Help: How to install CR-X door handles?

Hello Honda-tech. I was wondering if anyone has ever installed a door handle for a crx. Just the handle though. Not the housing. I traded my neighbor a door handle that I purchased at a Junk Yard for $2.00 and two corner lights that I purchased for $10.00 (And promised to install) for 4 mud flaps and a sun roof visor on his crx! Talk about a great deal! He isn't into the JDM scene so it was a great deal according to him!

Anyways, If anyone has done this or has write up on it. Please post! Thanks again for all the great help Fellow Honda-Tech"ers".

the inner or outer door handle. For the outer, i usually take the interior door panel off. You just need a phillips screw driver to do this. Then you can see the whole mechanism from the inner door handle to the outer door handle. Then just use a 10mm socket with an extension to take off the outer door handle assembly from inside the door. The it is easy to just swap them out.

I'm talking about just the handle that is used to open the door from the outside. My neighbors broke so I need to fix it. Ive never done it so I needed somewhat of a guideline I guess! Thanks!

You'll need to take the door panel off, remove the plastic lining stuff. Look for 2 bolts holding the handle on. Take them off then unscrew the bar connected to the handle. Take your time removing it and then replace the handle with the new in reverse order.
