Hey guys! We did a video and also a brief write up on how to remove the stock door handles on the Broncos. We replaced our stock ones on our Raptor with our set of painted factory replacements! They look AWESOME!

2021+ FORD BRONCO (ALL MODELS AND TRIM LEVELS)

Notes Prior to Install:
  • The instructions per door are nearly identical, however some doors have harnesses attached for door lock buttons.
  • It should take about 5 Minutes or less per door handle.
Tools Needed : 5mm socket, at least 8 inch extension (the longer the better), and a ratchet.
Check out the video here!


Here's the write up:

1. OPEN ANY DOOR AND IDENTIFY THE GROMMET SHOWN TO THE LEFT. REMOVE THIS GROMMET TO REVEAL A 5MM BOLT, SHOWN BELOW.
2. USING A 5MM SOCKET AND EXTENSION, START TO UNSCREW THE BOLT UNTIL YO U HEAR A SMALL CLICK. THIS CLICK MEANS THE BOLT IS FULLY UNTHREADED AND THE DOOR HANDLE IS LOOSE.

3. JUST LIKE YOU’RE OPENING THE DOOR, PULL THE HANDLE UNTIL IT POPS OUT OF PLACE. ONCE POPPED, YOU CAN EASILY REMOVE THE DOOR HANDLE FROM ITS GROOVE. IF APPLICABLE, UNCLIP THE HARNESS.

4. INSTALL THE NEW PAINTED DOOR HANDLE FOLLOWING THE SAME PROCESS. WHEN TIGHTENING, DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN! A SIMPLE SNUG FIT WILL BE JUST FINE, AS IT IS THREADING INTO PLASTIC.
5. REPEAT STEPS 1-4 ON EACH DOOR ON THE REAR DOOR, YOU WILL NEED THOSE EXTENSIONS IN ORDER TO REACH THE BOLT THAT HOLDS THE HANDLE ON.
