Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Will the handle’s lock cylinder match my original key? A: It includes its own lock cylinder and keys; if you want to retain your ignition key, a locksmith can rekey the cylinder to your existing key code.

Q: Is installation difficult for a novice? A: It’s a straightforward swap—remove the interior trim panel, unbolt the old handle, and bolt in the new one; most DIYers finish in under 45 minutes.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
