When you take your VIN in to the dealer, reference TSB No. 23-013-04.
That tells them the right handle part number to order - there's a bunch
of variatons. There system will probably tell them the right number
from your VIN as Glenn is saying, but the TSB gives the trim description
for each part so you can figure it out from that. Also it tells them
how to replace it.
Or find the TSB, order the part, and DIY because the part and labor are
going to be on your nickel. From the TSB: "POLICY: Reimbursable within
the provisions of the warranty." See - you just *thought* the part had
a defect! You obviously were mistaken. :)

Thanks for the input. The dealer quoted us around $150 labor so a half hour
is probably about right :(
The only issue now is we noticed two other door handles seem to have a
little ridge in them.........
