Called Nissan but they said these parts are no longer supplied and cannot be ordered.

 

So tried the local scrap yard and amazingly they had a Terrano II in. Even more shocking was the fact that it had 2 chrome handles still fitted!

 

Lucky or what?

 

Removed both handles (still in plastic housing). £20 for the pair.

 

Would have taken any others if available to help out any other members but will keep on checking regularly as I know most people want them!

 

The question now is: how do I fit them? The handle seems to be secured in to the surround by a pin that seems to be embeded in to the plastic. Any advice before I start to destroy the thing?

You need to pop off the door card to unscrew and slide the old one out.

Thanks Si.

NOTE: you do NOT have to remove the door cards to change these. It is a little fiddly, but not difficult. 15mins per side maximum, but be sure to have a good look at the set up to make sure it all goes together as it should....

I can remove a door card in 5 minutes, so I find it easier to do it that way.

I did mine without removing the door car, cant remember the exact way now but I know it was self explanetary once I got started, took 5 miutes to do both sides.

Thanks. I'll try without removing the door card firsts as I don't want to break any clips etc.

 

If I fail, the door card comes off.

you replace the whole unit not take the hadle away from the plastic (bit with the pin in!!)

its a total swap unit.

 

as stated above its VERY easy to do :)
