Door handle fix

My wife couldn't get in her truck without climbing through the passenger side, so I took a look at it this weekend. The pushbutton spring was wedged in the mechanism, and the spring retainer was at the bottom of the door. I drilled four 1/16" holes and used a little mechanics wire to hold everything back together. I don't see how it could ever happen again. This is a quick fix for those of us who are monetarily challenged.
