For me, it was a PITA to take out the door handles. What should have taken but 5-10 mins to remove took like an hour. There is a electronic wire that runs that is for the button that locks/unlocks your car, however, the harness for it is tucked inside the door frame. I have such over sized hands that disconnecting that thing took the whole hour since I can barely get my hands down in there. I was able to get my wife to come out and do the passenger side since she can get her hand down in there more easily. The other way of removing that wire is to unscrew 2 screws behind the door handle to remove that button all together, but the they are on there with loctite so I was stripping the screws long before they would even budge a 1/4 turn.
On the door handle removal thread, some ppl got it out with ease (5 mins), some ppl just gave up all together, but I was determined to get mine color matched.
