How to Install Chrome Handles on the Chevrolet Equinox

Model: Chevrolet Equinox MK 2 - Years 2010-2017
Part: Handle

In this video, see how to install chrome handles instead of the body-colored ones on the Chevrolet Equinox. Start by opening the door, then remove the protective rubber from the door itself. Now, unscrew the screw inside that will allow you to detach the cover of the opening mechanism. Next, remove the cover. You can insert the new chrome handles into the original slots since they are identical to the factory ones. Proceed in reverse with the installation steps. This procedure also applies to the other handles on the vehicle.
