Nope, the door card must be removed, which honestly isn't bad. It needs to be removed as the plastic rivets need to be drilled out but also the new screws are mounted from the inside.

I did my sons 535 and my 435 this year. I think the scariest part is popping the door card. It feels like something is braking while you attempt to separate the inner panel from the door. as obijon said go slow, watch some videos! Don't over drill the melted tab that's holding the original handle in place. It's a compressed fiber board, not exceptionally durable. I purchased my new handles from amazon. I ordered a few, returned what I didn't use, can't say it's a perfect color match (beige) but honestly, I am the only one that can tell.

Hi all, made this swap myself recently in the UK. I’ve got an F3/, did both door handles. Bought the repalcement handles from ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/395105163...mis&media=COPY
And followed this video to install It was tough at first taking a drill to my door card, but once the anxiety is out of the way, it’s actually pretty easy. Takes half hour to fix, and well worth it for a few quid! |
