Fit Perfect comes with Rod retainer but save old nuts.
This fits well and good quality. I drilled our the 2 studs that attach this to the door this was easy. The handle comes out, carefully try and catch the remaining stud parts since you will need the Nuts. 1 of mine fell to the bottom of the door inside area and I retrieved it with a magnet. Once that handle is off, then you can reach the short attachment rod to pull down and open the door. Then on the side of the door remove the 4 screws that hold the metal inspection plate to attach the rod and attach the 2 nuts that hold the door handle. Dont even try to do this from the inside thru the door panel if the door is closed with the handle broken. It was really quite an easy replacement if you have the right tools including a drill, bits and a magnet on a stick to retrieve the nuts/suds parts that you will reuse.

Quality handle .
Perfect fit door handle the only issue which isn’t a biggy the rod clip it come with won’t work has nothing to lock the rod but just use old handle rod clip , and then it didn’t come with nuts to install in my case my handle was missing completely and had no nuts . Again not a deal breaker the handle is great quality and cost is great .

So far it looks like a good buy however...
I liked everything about the door handle except you need to use your old rod clip on the new handle, or the rod will pop off. There's nothing in the new clip for the latch rod to click into. I don't understand why they are using that clip when it def does not work. I see a few others had the same issue. I mean really, person that is selling this! If a buyer is unfortunate and breaks his old clip, he/she will have to pay for one online, if they can find one... Other than that, it seems like the rest of the door handle functions well. (A tip) Those who's doors don't work after installing this handle. You need to adjust the rod going to it.It gets out of adjustment after the door handle starts going bad or when it is removed to add the new door handle. You must make it shorter by bending it at the middle of the rod, a little bit at a time, until the door opens.

Quality Product, Great Price and Super Fast Shipping
Their product was nearly half the price of most others on the internet and at the local parts store. Arrived in two days and is an exact match to the one that was on the vehicle. I have added them to my favorites list.
