Driver's side barn door handle only?
So I recently did the door lock cable end upgrade as described on this forum and then promptly broke my darned door handle itself.
It seems the RH barn door handle is easy to find, but I cannot find the part # for the driver's side door handle only. Is the driver's side only sold as a kit, with the cable and actuator itself or does anyone know if the handle is available separately?

Cable end replacement was straightforward, but I pulled on the handle a bit too hard trying to seat the cable end a little more and wound up breaking the plastic retaining tab on the handle that keeps the cable in place. I switched the cable end to the lower tab on the handle, but it doesn't work very well there I believe because of the bend that you have to put in the cable to get it to reach the lower tab.

Tom, I got your message. I believe that is sold as an assembly only on the left side. Your other option is to visit a salvage yard and pay a couple of bucks for the whole assembly. Then you would have your handle and the rest of the assembly as a spare. Some yards, however, will not separate the handles/latches from their doors.
