it doesnt work

I went into the door to check stuff out. the acutaly handle mechanism (moving thing) connects to the rod that openes the door differently up front then in the back. I Believe it still bolts up in the same spots, but im not positive, didnt get a good look. If it does bolt into the same spots then i could just change the handle, but thats alot of dremeling pins and **** off to get the handles out, then reattaching the other one would be a headache, trying to keep the pin from coming out. Prolly just gonna give up and scrap this mod. 15 down the hole.
But, I'll hold onto the handle, maybe if i come across a front one real cheap I'll work on switching the handles and ****ing with that big pin.
