I have a 2008 chevrolet pickup and the inside door handles will not open to let me out have to open from outside. what is teh fix or part numbers for the fix?
There is a repair kit for you truck. The part that is broken is the metal piece. If you go through GM you have to buy a brand new interior door trim panel because the door handle part is attached to it. Otherwise I found a company that offers a repair kit that just repairs the broken part. Plus is cheaper then buy a whole interior door trim part.

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!

yes. you should remove the inside door panel.
to do this, remove all the screws you can see. One in the door handle, one by the mirror, then remove window crank/buttons
the take a flathead screwdriver and CAREFULLY pry the panel off. it is best to pry where the plastic pins are holding the panel on.
reverse procedure to reinstall.

You have to open it from the inside and take off the entire back panel on door from there you will find your way if not write back.
