Dodge Durango Door Handle Removal (THIS WASN'T EASY)

[@tonyslack1579]

Thank you brother for sharing your disassembly videos. That’s what makes my life easier when I wrap, is not having to figure out how to disassemble.

[@jimscott4332]

Yes, you definitely helped orher wrappers to decide that there will be a seem.

[@kirkmcdonald9801]

Stuff like this is exactly why I got out the wrapping world. This type of stuff just stressed me out too much so huge props to you bro for being able to do this so joyful! Major respect

[@scarlettsantiago6277]

All that work for a door handle sheesh! The professionalism and dedication is real. Many blessings peace positive vibes thoughts and energy your way.

[@samsonwraps]

Ayyye, I appreciate that! Thanks for watching 👏🏼

[@SUPAJable]

Man, love how detail you are and no shortcuts on your wrapping game . 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@samsonwraps]

Appreciate that bro!! And have too, people pay good money for quality wrap jobs!

[@ActionHank]

I can honestly say from helping put together some friend's cars and my own over the years, that I've never seen another door handle assembly like that. Seems crazy overkill for a door handle removal 100%. Not sure what their motivation behind that design was, other than costing more money to replace it if/when it breaks haha. Thanks for the video!

[@RoastFlea61]

Engineers don’t think about working on cars, at all. Just look at Ford. They’ll have a part held on by two screws, a rivet, 2 8mm bolts, one 5.5mm, and three 10mms plus a random T20 screw somewhere. It’s like ford engineers just grab handfuls of bolts and randomly use them.

[@iPrint3D]

Nex time, remove the window motor, lower the window, put the motor back on, pop those little clips for the window, remove the 10s around and those green t30s, the 3 t30s for the latch, reach up there and pop that orange clip that holds the handle rod. Then the entire black part will come out. Then you can get the 3 8mms outs very easy. The window will "set" itself. No need to take a video for a glass that snaps in. All dodges/chryslers past 2008 are like this. You should be able to gut that entire door in sub 20minutes.

[@Fishersweet]

If only all videos were made like this. Great video bro thank you!

[@invictusvinyl]

Yep You have to take the window out to take the handles off .. I have done a couple now

[@davidboyce6427]

Happy to see your continued grind after you left Premium. You obviously about work progress and bringing your people along with want to learn this craft; work of art✌️✌️👊👊. I'm a big fan Ssmson. I'll continue to watch your vids🙏

[@avpgraphicswraps3894]

Bruhhhhh!!! Yes these were super freaking aggravating. I did this about a year ago ....difficult is an understatement right!

[@samsonwraps]

Haha don’t think I want to wrap another lol

[@CSOCSO]

Uploaded a video about this in 2020 but yours is def. cleaner video. Good job.

[@keeganmiller442]

wow brilliant engineering

[@samsonwraps]

Lmao crappy engineering

[@392-Scatt]

Would the glass need to be removed to reattach the door handle sensor?

[@BorisPecker]

Jesus I hope you charged a little extra for that extra labor man

[@samsonwraps]

I always research vehicles I’ve never taken apart before so of course! I knew it would be a bit difficult so of course charged more.

[@JoeyVilleneuve]

@@samsonwraps Very good advice for anyone getting into the game and thinking of starting a wrapping business. Always do your research on given vehicles before taking on a project.

[@avpgraphicswraps3894]

I always remove, makes my job way easier...plus I love to learn new things.....so it pays off more then one way for me!.....knowledge and money! Whoop...whoop.....

[@samsonwraps]

By far, less errors and less chances of scratches something

[@mizazarif8843]

Love your job🔥🔥

[@samsonwraps]

Appreciate that!!

[@viceboyy5591]

have you ever wrapped a mazdaspeed3 first gen?

[@samsonwraps]

Never

[@viceboyy5591]

could you post that supra mirror video possibly would be very helpful

[@victorsantos7064]

That's the exact same door handle and method for the Jeep Grand Cherokee bro.

[@samsonwraps]

Such a harsh design for us installer lol

[@victorsantos7064]

Samson Montoya absolutely. Not sure about you, but I scratched up my arms pretty good reaching in there.

[@aruma3100]

Yo. Where are you guys located?

[@Ron2Fly]

Would it be the same on a jeep srt??|

[@M2C_mike]

I’m late but I’m here

[@stevendeleon2201]

I was able to leave the glass alone but cut my arms up trying to reach the bolts lol they suck

[@samsonwraps]

Lmao Savage, I’ve done that before but Install is much harder

[@greenrogue07]

Found a way to remove the door handle on this thing withouth that much hastle.

[@peej.w7598]

Please share

[@greenrogue07]

@@peej.w7598 all you need to do is drill a hole in the cover to access one of the two bolts on the side, you can use a gromet to cover it after and it looks like new. Then you can slide your hand in and temove the bolt by the plug, along with the connection. The connection takes a little to figure out how it snaps out, but after that it’s easy. Let me know if it work out for you. Saved us a ton of time and work liability

[@greenrogue07]

@@peej.w7598 will make a tutorial next time we have a durango here. It was one of a kind handle removal for sure, idk why they went that route

[@peej.w7598]

@@greenrogue07 awesome, thanks so much for the reply. I'll definitely try it out once this Durango job comes in next week.

[@peej.w7598]

@@greenrogue07 which of the two bolts did you end up removing? Want this to go as smoothly as possible. Say we're talking the driver side door. Left or rightmost bolt?

[@etdancer]

Thank you for the video

[@m.meyers2511]

Damn, what a bad design. I admire you that you take so much time and risks for that.

[@samsonwraps]

Your telling me! It’s horrible

[@M2C_mike]

Guy would’ve left with black door handles if it was me 🤣🤣

[@T12i99iN]

Damn...all that for a door handle BUT like you said, you care about your craft and taking a shortcut just isn't your thing. I hope you're charging your labor accordingly with those PITA doors\door handles.

[@aarongarchow6095]

I just did One of these as a Remove and Install to paint a door and god One of the worst designs i have ever seen

[@grafxx5397]

What a tedious job... but you removing it goes to show how meticulous you are at your job. I’m pretty sure other people/companies wouldn’t even bother removing it and just wrap over it.

[@samsonwraps]

Very tedious if you’ve never done before! But thankfully it all went well on removal! Hopefully the same for install lol. Thanks for watching

[@teammillion2]

what a stupid design, why wouldnt they make all door handles the same way with the singlebolt under the rubber plug, makes a wrap take way more time and stress to dissaseble

[@sav2232]

You didn’t have to do all of that. If you would of moved the plastic trim piece there is a small access hole to get the bolts out of the door handle.

[@yessismaldonado8483]

Where

[@yessismaldonado8483]

It’s covered

[@yessismaldonado8483]

No hole
