SOURCE: 2000 Silverado Exterior Door Handle

If you have the panel off, just look up at were the outside door handle is mounted. You need to unbolt the rest of what is left....usually a metric fastner. Next, there should be 2 small access holes, probably covered by plastic sheeting. These holes are for the socket to reach them. There are a few clips that need to be popped loose from the rods but take your time and use a thin flat tipped screwdriver. And when you go to reinstall the new handle, you'll have to manipulate the handle into the door skin or the "hole" where the door handle goes.

Just take your time and you can do this.

Good luck!

SOURCE: Exterior door handles

Door panel off,window up, you should be able to see the back of the handle. There should be 2 screws or nuts holding the handle on. There should also be a rod going to the handle that is held on with a clip. One end of the clip just lifts up off of the rod and then the rod should slide out of the handle.Sometimes it is a little difficult reaching in doors and doing this but just take your time and watch for sharp edges.
Once you have the door panel off you should be able to see how it all works. If you can't get to the upper clip you might be able to take the lower one loose and take the rod out with the handle.
I hope this helps and that I guided you in the right direction.

Door won't unlatch or come open

Ford had a problem with the door handles not working properly. They are cheap plastic. If the exterior door handle is broken, you will need to drill out the rivets that hold it in, and then get the door open and the panel off. You have to disconnect the rod going to it. Then, remove the handle. If you don't want to drill again, I suggest replacing the rivets with a bolt and nut easily obtainable at your hardware store. I've found that a M7 bolt works very well. If you are having a problem with the interior door handle, it's the same problem. Remember to check your door latch because if your exterior handle is broken, then your latch isn't working properly. I got one at Ford for about 40 bucks.
