Since no one else offered any onfo about the way the handle attaches, I will
try.......The back of the G2 handle has a small offset tab that hooks on the
sheetmetal in the door and then the screw holds it in place......this is the
best way I can describe it from memory.....
I too, was confused the first time I took my '94 door panel off...but then
again I stay confused...
Hope this helps......
