Ordered the part, arrived the NEXT DAY, a quick 10 minutes (mostly to open the package using a butter knife), and my fridge door handle was replaced! Thank you Pa

Two screws was all that needed to be done. BUT, don't throw away your old handle insert as the new handle doesn't include one and would look funny without it.
