Inside door pull question (photos included)

[markeaton]

All-

I was going to put the last of my panels in today. I bought new inside door handles and the clips to receive the screws.

You'll see in the drivers side photo, it is all set up correctly.

On the passenger side, you'll see me holding the clip, but it does not have the "square" to receive the clip like the drivers side.

Am I missing something simple or do I need to cut a piece of metal?

Thank you

The door has been replaced with an earlier one that pre-dates the pull handles. Your choices are:
1. Replace the door with a later model that has the cutout.
2. Cut the cutout in your door.
3. Drill a hole and drive the screw directly into the door metal.

I chose #3.

Thank you Mr Whoopee.... I did not know that was an earlier door.

Seeing that the panels do have the spots cut out already for the handles, #3 does make sense.

Thanks !!!
