Auto Parts: 1997 Toyota Camry Driver Door Handle Replacement, toyota camry, door handle


Question
I, like many other 1997 Toyota Camry owners have had to replace my driver door handle.  During my replacement, I ran into a "small" problem.  Upon releasing the locking rod, I broke the little yellow plastic piece securing the rod into the locking mechanism.  So now I cant use the lock from the exterior.  My question is; What is the little yellow plastic piece's Part Name and where would I be able to find such a miniscule part??  It's only been 48 hours since I tried to fix my problem, but it's already killing me to unlock my door through the passenger side.  Your help with this matter would be greatly appreciated!!!  Thanks for your time.

Answer
    God only knows what Toyota calls that part, but you are going to have to go to them to get it.  They have a nice illustrated parts guide so you can just point at the piece you need and they'll round it up for you.  As long as you're going there see if you need any other dealer-only parts.  Also check their sale items while you're there.  Toyota oil filters, when on sale, are cheaper than anyone else's (and better quality).
