So, I wake up this morning and go outside to start my car. We got snow last night with some rain so its all nice and shitty outside with icy crap and what not, but it looks nice! As im pulling to open my car door.... ~!!BAM!!~ The handle snaps right off.. and sadly, my only other door is broke too, only opens from the inside. So that sucks alot, but I get to use my moms car which saves my gas.. Why do you do this to me Tercel, I love you...

Always breaking my heart.. Thanks for listening to my rant..

My friends old tercel had a handle that broke off. He called it theft deterrent and would just stick his fingers in the hole to work the door. good luck

Maybe try a junkyard, many times you can get a whole door for dirt cheap and it's like just a few bolts to swap a whole door.

good point, my bro did it to his suby when he touched a guardrail. His whole door was 30 bucks, but he is a mechanic so maybe it just sounded easy.

I ffound your problem, it's a tercel.



no offense but they aren't the best made Toyota's ya know. I'd go with the other guy and find a junkyard that has some lying around and either just take the whole door(or two if you want) or just take out the handle and locking assembly, then you can have two working doors.
