Rear door handle removal!?

Please for the love of God someone tell me how to get these off. Front were easy. I've removed the one bolt I see on both sides and unhinged the locking pin. What's left!? I can't wiggle it free and I don't see another bolt or anything. I've searched and searched to no avail

I swapped out my rear door handles a few years back. I remember it being a pain. I believe there are 3-4 bolts, one of which is behind the door skin and takes some crafty positioning to get it out. I remember my hands being all scratched up. I can look at my old handles later to get an idea of where the bolts are located.

After removing the panel and clear bra, I only see one bolt holding the rear in. Front uses two. I cannot fathom the reasoning behind making this so hard. It's as if you need to pry a screwdriver in there and unclip the actual handle from the door. But I've tried that with no luck either. Driving me crazy

So easy. For anyone who ever finds this, on the rears you have to unscrew the 3 screws holding the lock in place, slide it out of the way and boom, second bolt.
