Cool tailgate handle

I have a 2001 Ranger and the rear tailgate handle broke. Is it hard to replace? It has a plastic bed liner and it has torex screws holding it in place. Do I have to remove the bed liner and then get to the handle through some sort of access panel? Then the automatic door locks only lock but do not unlock the front passenger and driver doors. I hope someone has some sort of idea on that one. Thanks so much for any information. This my friends truck and I was useing it and of coarse the handle breaks when I am useing the truck to haul some brush away. I have posted before with help form you guys and got some good advise. Need some now. Mech1054

You will need to remove that panel with the torx bits,it is a straight forward replacement.
