1995 E36 exterior door handle bezel by Mike Ogilvie
The tabs broke off and the bezel fell off. I have the new replacement, but there seems to be a thin metal piece just the other side of the holes with a gap to hold the top tabs. Do I need to remove the inside panel? There must be an easier way. Help!

I drove a Jeep Grand Cherokee recently, and notice right away that the design of the front passenger door makes it difficult for a person to enter the vehicle. I almost knocked my head as I entered the vehicle, and I am a short person. I wonder if it is even worse for tall persons. Yesterday I...
