I installed mine the exact same way as the others...you need to be absolutely sure that the pins are all in...

All of them should install the right way. It took about 30 minutes for me to put mine on. The hardest part is getting in the inside of the door. What you might need to do is pull hard on that metal rod that connects to the handle. I cut myself a few times trying to get in there. I dont really think you should have a problem with them fitting, where did you get the handles and what kind of truck (make/model) are you putting them on?

i used the rear door handle from a denali because i don't want the key hole,for a cleaner look but the 3 pins are in different places . i have a 03 gmc sierra RC and have seen guys w/o the passager key hole on RC.
