Replacing Driver's side interior door handle - 2004 Hyundai Accent

The interior door handle just broke on the driver's side of my 2004 Hyundai Accent. It's a base 2 door model. I can open the door fine with the exterior door handle. It basically sounded like something snapped inside.
I ordered a replacement part already, but not quite sure how to replace it. I've looked online, but seems to be very little about replacing the interior handle of this particular year/make/model.
I'd normally have my mechanic do it, but things are a bit tight financially right now so I'd rather save the money and do it myself.

Any guidance is appreciated.

How do you know the part to buy when you haven't looked at it?

2. Loosen the door trim mounting screws(7EA), remove the trim using a trim remover, and then disconnect the power window switch connector.

NOTE: When using a trim remover, wrap it with a piece of cloth so it will not damage the painted surface.

3. Remove the door trim seal, speaker, and connector.
4. Installation is the reverse of removal.
