I have a 99 GS 300 Burnished Metallic Gold - the passenger door won't open from the outside, and rolling down the window caused the door to unlock. Took off the door panel cover and found the door handle has a circular portion that connects to a mechanical linkage to the door lock. The circular portion is broken. The dealer wants $171 for the painted part, I'm thinking about trying a salvage yard - think it's likely to find the right color handle? Looks like it will be easy to replace -
Are there any other sources for a part like this? (I kind of doubt it)
