So suddenly yesterday I could no longer open my passenger door from the outside. I took the outside handle off and found that the plastic ring broke, that pushes on the lever to activate the latch.
First of all, it seems idiotic to make a part like this out of plastic! But that aside, can I replace just the plastic part, or do I need to buy an entire outside handle? Attached thumbnail(s) |

when I cleaned my inner latch I also ended up needing to soak in in pb blaster to lube it right. turns out I cleaned it too well but after soaking it in pb blaster it works like new.
