Door Handle on Camry 02

[razr7]

Hi, Im new to this forum. I just brought a 2002 toyota camry LE with the right interior door handle broken.

I ordered this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...OC%3AUS%3A1123

Wondering if installation is easy? Do I really need to open the whole panel up? or could I just remove the one screw and replace it from there? I included a picture of the screw I am talking about, circled in RED.

You have to remove the panel and unhook the handle from the rod that goes to the door latch allowing the door to open. It's a pretty straightforward and easy procedure.

This isn't for the Gen 5, but it's the same idea:

yep, gotta remove the panel. had to do this when the stupid body shop didn't reconnect the door handle properly when they put the door back together. it's a pretty simple procedure and you'll learn how to remove door panels.
