while trying to put the door handle back into its place ,i realised the metal bit inside the door(the one that one of the 2 big t screws screw into) came of its plastic frame and its not holding the metal bit so that i cant screw both sides of the handle ,the bottom bit is loose now.any ideas on this one ?

you know that plastic handle on the photo is being held by two screws from top and bottom , the screws go into little square metal rings inside the door ,and yes i broke the plastic frame that surrounds and holds the metal ring at the bottom ,so that i cant get the metal ring and the screw mate eachother unless i cut a hole from outside the drivers door to hold the metal ring in its place
