Re: outer door handle rod

IIRC the bottom of the rod fits in a piece of the latch that has a hole facing up. It basically just sits in the latch. Sorry I don't have pics but if you can see it, it should be about the only hole on the latch that points up.

When the handle is pulled up, the rod pushes down.
