Question
The driver's side sliding door exterior door handle is broken off. What is the best way to replace it? Where should I purchase the replacement part?

Answer
Racedog,

Dealer item so you need to go to Nissan or a wrecking yard.  Problem with wrecking yards these days is they want to sell you the door and not parts off of it.  So, you would have to get lucky and find a crunched door with a good handle.  But, the dealer or courtesynissan.com if you can wait a couple of days.  You will probably wait a couple of days since they will probably have to order the part too.  To get the door handle off you will have to take the inside panel off to get to the two ten millimeter bolts adn the clip that holds the rod.
