I am about to get working on my outer door handles. They both broke on the same day right before leaving to petit le mans, but in different ways.

On the drivers side I think it's the little plastic piece on the inside.
On the passengers side the handle is loose due to the plate breaking.
I have a new little plastic thingey and a new metal base for the other handle.

Anyone with experience that is willing to offer any tips or suggestions will be rewarded in their next life.
