Unfortunately the swap didn't work out. When the cylinder gets moved to the other side of the car it also gets turned upside down due to the gating in the inside of the case for the lock cylinder. The problem with this is the tumblers are allowed to slightly fall out and they catch on the interior of the handle. This locks the push button in the in position and has to be reset by inserting the key to withdraw the tumblers. Not good, they are being returned in the morning to the vendor.

I forgot to take pictures after finishing the weatherstrip and window installation. I have already turned the car around so I can work on the drivers side so you will just have to look at the inside and use your imagination. You can see the door pull and window roller is now in place. The door handles were for the European market, having the lockable one on the right side. Fortunately, the lock cylinders are screwed to the handles so I was able to swap them over.

This is the  drivers side handle
