Lol, yeah I pulled the interior of the door off and I couldnt see a way to get to the handles... Reckon you could type up a little guide so I could do them? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

the out side handels are pretty easy should take you about an 1 hour tops.... Remover your door trim, remove your theif sheild (if you have one) and with a 10mm socket and bit of an extention undo and replace? pretty easy

Just try not to drop the nuts in the door, some can take a while to find. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
