Hi guys, got a question about door handle replacement.
The door handle on my 1997 Accent, driver side, broke off. I've found replacement parts online, my question is this: is it possible to replace the door handle without needing to replace the key? Can I just replace the actual handle, without needing to swap out the whole assembly? Or do I need to find a handle that fits the key that I have, or get one with a key, or is it possible to swap out the lock mechanism...? I just want to be able to use the same key, but am not really sure how to go about doing this. Would really appreciate any advice on this, thanks!
