I'm not a professional, so there may be a better way, but I did change the handle on the passengers side front door of my 2004. Remove the interior door panel by first pulling off the small triangle piece inside the side mirror. Then unscrew 2 screws, one in the hand cup and another near the door release handle. Then pull off the interior cover. It's held in place by plastic pins, so just tug. Then peel back the plastic cover and remove the black shield on the top on the door nearest to the rear. My handle was broken so pulling it out was easily done with some wiggling. There are to screws that require and Allen, hex wrench. One should be visible directly behind the handle. The other is behind a plug on the edge of the door frame, above where the lock gripes the car frame. Unscrew these to loosen the housing for the handle linkage. There was a red plastic holding a bar, which I flipped up but I am not certain it's necessary. Next pull the lock straight out, on the outside of the door. You should then be able to slide the old handle out, and the new handle in.
