Can this be glued back with some heavy duty stuff or should I just try to get a new handle? If I need a new one, where's the best place to get a replacement and how much do you think it'll be? This is for a '94 Accord btw. Thanks.

 

Try a junkyard. Im sure you can snag one of those.

 

Go to the Parts Department at the dealership and take a look at the door schematics. Tell them what part you need. If you've never taken out the door panels, you can either learn now or have ur dealer install the handle, which they'll probably charge anywhere from $75-150. Good luck!

 

the hell with that, I wouldn't pay 75 to 150 for a handle, go to the junkyard, you might find an even better one than the one you had before, just put it in your pocket and act as if you didn't find what you were looking for....hehehehe

 

I saw that and said "Wow...that really sucks." That's like so awful.

 

Yeah, I can still get in and out of the car ok (cut my hand once a little bit once though). It just sucks because the interior is otherwise nearly perfect...

 

you must have super human strength to yank on that hard enough to break have you tried any super glue yet, if it doesnt work then just replace the whole thing.

 

ha! that's funny because actually my girlfriend is the one that broke it. she just got the car so this kinda sucks until we fix it...but yeah, i was thinking about trying some gorilla glue or something but since the contact patch is so small, I'm not sure how well it would hold up.

 

ebay?

 

I did it twice on my 91 Toyota and did my brothers on his 99 Tahoe. Usually you have to take the frame around the handle off (should be a single screw that you get to by prying off that cincular cover). Then take your door panel off (easiest with the window down). Then the whole assembly should be exposed and you can replace what you need.

The previous post was true. You can steal one from a junk yard no problem. But if you feel honest you can buy it for liek 5 or 6 bucks. And the good thing is, you get to go out there and take it off yourself. So you get practice on a junker car. And if you break something, no one is around and you don'r have to pay for it. It's like free unlimited repair practice.

Just wear crappy clothes because you will get real dirty. And you should have a Chiltons or Haynes manual for your car. Its 15 bucks and saves you so much money if you do your own work.
