Replacing Broken Driver's Inner Door Handle

Mine snapped off recently... plastic with metal insert finally failed after 20 years...
A couple things learned: front and rear handles are the same part on the driver's side, but the handle assemblies are not compatible, so if you can't find a front driver's assembly, just buy the rear which has likely had much less use, and could be less prone to breaking.
Notes:
1. Rear handle assembly will not fit the front, but the rear handle itself fits, so you just to remove it by releasing the spring, and pushing out the pin (I had to drill the pin on the rear assembly I bought used because it wouldn't push out due to a flattened end that made it stick).
2. When removing driver's door panel/handle, remember that behind the power side mirror left/right switch foam insert is the tab you release in order to safely and easily remove the power side mirror switch. Don't pry it. Then you can pull the black door handle surround and finish working.
