Outside trigger, right? If it was just the outside finger pull that
broke, you can replace just the handle and trigger and transfer your
original lock cylinder and the piece that it moves to unlock the door
to the "new" handle. That will work fine, except for the fact that
the key number is stamped on the handle, so it will be wrong now.
I can sell you just a bare handle/trigger assy, and you should write
down the key number from your old handle before you throw it away.
