Something's missing...

on the inside of the rear lifting window. I'm the proud owner of an '01 ex and just realized that I am either missing 2 screws or a handle there. If you imagine lifting up the rear window and looking straight up at the molding on the interior, on mine, there are 2 holes. I think I need to mitigate the problem. Can you give me a hand?

There is a handle supposedly intended for pulling down the tri-fold door glass top from the inside. Oddly enough, I just noticed a lost screw from mine today. One side of the handle slipped down and interfered with the closing of the glass.

Now all we need is a way of getting out of the back that doesn't involve waiting for the wife to let us out or climbing over the back seats to exit the rear doors.

I got the handle in the mail. now, the next question is, what do I use to secure it to the trim? it didn't come with any hardware.
