Assist Handle Replacement

NOTE:
  • When removing trim components that require prying, use a suitable trim tool, not a screwdriver. Gently pry on the component to avoid damage.
  • Put on gloves to protect your hands.
  1. Remove the covers (A), and remove the screws, then remove the assist handle (B).
