Hi all, I will start and say I have googled and searched this forum prior to posting I just cannot find this part or its name.

So I recently bought my 2003 350z and it is pretty rough shape. Someone before the guy I bought from removed a ton of paneling and cut wire for no reason (ie cut window wires cut, center 3 gauges wires cut, removed plastic paneling everywhere etc). He was not stripping it, he was just cutting and destroying for no reason.

So he decided to take of the door handles and most of the internals to the door (chopping wires and such as he went).

When trying to put this thing back together I noticed the driver side door handle attaches to a handle rod. Then that rod connects/sits inside of a plastic funnel/hole (sometimes blue or purple plastic) in or to allow for the door handle rod to push the door latch open....

What is that plastic funnel piece called and am I able to get this piece alone? The passenger side has this piece. I thought I had this piece but cannot find it anywhere.

Along with this he chopped the wires to the window potentiometer and broke the plastic to the pot. Do anyone know where I can get that piece?

Thank you

Are you talking about like these types of clips?

No so those are the part where the door handle connect to the rod.

I am referring to the funnel hole/cup/catch where that rod connects to the door latch

Probably just order the whole assembly.

So I ended up just order a new latch assembly. I did end up finding the blue plastic that flew off but I have so many issues with the doors getting stuck in half locked stated right now I am just going to replace the latch and try and hope that fixes this issue
