2 behind the door handle, just search for the diy on here to be safe, biggest thing is you wanna be careful not to just drop the panel or something after you remove it from the door you'll break the plastic piece in the linkage that goes to the interior handle

I've broken those twice now on both doors. Luckily the whole cable assembly is $5. Next time I'm going to order a 6 pack. It's embarrassing when you have a girl that can't get out of your car. I tried to play it off like I'm a nice guy opening the door for her lol. On the flip side it's more embarrassing to open the door for your guy friends with people watching. I usually made them roll down the window and open it from the outside.

Is there a holder that you can use that'll snap into the stock hole so you don't have to screw anything in?
