I might, I haven't taken it apart yet but one of my door handles does not spring back after opening. Not sure which spring is broken.

I installed a spring I got from Lee yesterday. Extremely difficult to install unless I'm missing an easy way to do it, but once I managed to get it in the door is working properly again. Talked to Lee today, he gave me a pointer on how to make it easier to install so I will know better next time. He is very helpful so get him to explain the easy way.
