Default Need help! How do u remove chrome door handles/not glued on ones?

Say, can someone tell me how to get them off the doors? I thought they were press on ones with the 3m tape but I bought it new and its real plastic chrome ones that when you pull on the handle I can see these two little tabs under there that looks like it holds the chrome handles on but I can seem to get them off and I dont want to break them. Any help would be appreciated. Oh, it a 2010 2500 model.

You dont...I tried and undernieth the cover it is body color matched but its also all worn and ****ty looking and while trying to remove the chrome cover I cracked it so now I will be ordering body color matched exterior handles from dodge...you can get em from www.wholesalemopar.com for $40 a piece.

Basically dodge took the body color matched handles and put there own crappy chrome covers on them but the used some crazy *** glue that ate away the paint on the handle itself under the chrome cover...

The chrome is not an overlay, it is part of the actual handle. You have to remove the whole handle. I think they are 10mm screws behind the door module after you take off the door pad itself.
