rear passenger door handle snapped off, how easy it it to fit a new one?
what about a new inside handle too as the handle there is bent and the backplate is missing

not to difficult to do, just fiddley and you need a long extension bar to get at the nuts holding the handle on. The door handle trim bit (called an escutcheon I think) is simply held on with one screw. Not sure about the handle but I'm guessing a couple more nuts and bolts.. the fiddly bit is removing and reattaching the metal linkage rods.
Should take an hour or so to do depending on the tools and your confidence.

I have 4 chrome door handles and a few black plastic ones if you are interested?
