Door handle cover

MidLife RS:) · 08-21-2018, 10:13 AM

Anyone have the cover aft of the door handle pop loose?
Cannot just snap it back in place.

you might have bent the clip. try seeing if clip is straight. if it is, still not going on order a new door clip. item number should be behind the part.

I hate to tell you but that little cover is expensive. i dropped mine and it got scuffed up. After looking up the part to order, I just used touch up paint.

How much is expensive? It would have made sense to state just how much the part cost!

$25?

The little tabs on the back may be broken. Mine was delivered that way. Check out this post from two years ago: https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=455089

Check out this thread, too. It's WAY easier to install a new keyhole cover this way than to try to pop it on. https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=455569

I think it was a little more when I broke mine 2 years ago. Still ridiculous for that little piece of plastic.

I took mine off maybe a month and it did take about 10 mins to put it back on. Nothing was bent but I had a hard time aligning it.
