Just take the door pannel out. (3 screws on the bottom of the door, one screw on the side of the door pannel, two screws hidden under a little plastic piece below the door handle, and one screw hidden behind the black plastic piece that is behind the door handle).
Then just pull on the door pannel. You will encounter resistance because it is clipped to the door. Pull hard being careful not to break these clips (there are at least ten clips).
Then you will see the door handle, which is attached to the frame of the door by 3 rivets.
This is as far as I went since I don't have the tools to remove the rivets.
hope this helps.

You will need to remove the inside door panel. With the door panel removed the entire door latching system will be visible. Reattach the door handle by attaching the door handle retaining bolts.
