Anyone know how difficult it would be to install a new set of chrome door handles...(

I'm also curious about this. The chrome door handles look good.

Simple procedure, shouldn't take more than ten minutes.

Do you have to take the inside panels off?

Nope, you don't have to remove the interior panels. On the drivers side, there's a little red reflector sticker in the doorjam (peel it back). On the passenger side, there's a black plug. If I remember correctly, you'll use a Torx bit in a screwdriver to remove the screw (through the hole), pull off the smaller piece of the handle, pull the larger piece back and away from the door.

Thanks Dirtsurfer

One thing I forgot to mention, the back doors, you may have to remove the interior panels. I don't have rear door handles so I haven't experienced it first hand.
