I painted and then installed this handle in the driver's door of my 2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac. It is my second replacement - during the install, I noticed that the previous (now Broken) handle was very loose - either the bolts loosened over time, or I never got them tight enough. This installed as easily as the previous replacement - not my idea of fun, but after watching a YouTube video and carefully observing what goes where, it can be done in a reasonable amount of time. It has been installed for a couple of months and appears to be holding up well.
NOTE: while you're doing this replacement, be sure to adjust the handle linkage so you don't have to lift it excessively to open the door.
