The chrome trim piece is not an orderable part by itself. You would have to order complete door handles.

With that said, the chrome trim is removable via two torx screws. You need to remove the door handles to remove and replace the trim.

I recently replaced my door handles due to the keyless go lock buttons becoming inoperative. I saved the chrome parts and would be willing to part with them. PM me.

Out of curiosity, what happened to your chrome parts that you are in need to replace them?

I need to replace mine also, the button is not working on the drivers side and the smaller chrome trim has a little chipped out part on it.

Any idea on how much is the handle?

Are you talking about the chrome part on the door handle or the chrome part on the lock portion ?

Each door handle at Dealer COST was approx $155.00. Retail was obscene.

The lock portion is a different part than the door handle. If I remember correctly it is chrome plated/painted plastic where as the chrome part on the door handle is a metal.

Like the door handle you would have buy the entire part (including lock cylinder) if you wish to replace. You can buy that part either in silver or unpainted ONLY.
