I am new to this forum and new to the Sky, we love our baby but need a new door handle. Any suggestions on where to purchase? Is the installation difficult?

Those handles are plastic welded onto the side panel of the door....but it may be possible to remove the handle and it's spring and reattaching it to your door...but not sure on this.

Door handles are available on eBay. Do a site search here and you will find a number of threads discussing how to change them.

Both the inside and outside door handles are also used on Chevy Cobalts. Search for Cobalt on here and/or the solsticeforum and you'll see threads/posts on replacing both.

Also, here's a video (this for a Solstice, but the method/design is the same):

I followed this video to a tee when I did both of mine. I also used the part numbers provided in the video for the Dorman's Cobalt handles. It turned out great, but it's not something that I believe everyone can do. This is really a DIY workaround fix and as such requires some MacGyvering to make this work. If you're comfortable MacGyvering things than you should be good to go following the instructions. If you're not, then I wouldn't recommend it as you'll just end up with possibly a bigger problem. To my knowledge this is really the only way to replace them though or some variant of the same besides replacing the entire door panel.

Thank you - for all your help! The video was a definite God send - Definitely will take some MacGyvering! lol!

After watching that video...I went to my car and viewed my inside handles....good as new. And my car is a 2006 build

One of the easier repairs I've done on this car. You can find the Cobalt handles very easily and the replacement took about 1/2 hour per door.
