    Yes, but you have to swap the door handle internals. The back door has a longer latch than the front.

    Someone clear this up so I can do this over Christmas break. Mine is all sorts of jacked up and the cylinder won't accept a key anymore anyway.

    No need to swap anything internally, it all just bolts up. No modifications required.
    One thing we did: the rod that goes from the handle to the door mechanism, flip it over to the right side of the handle lever.
    So, instead of inserting it into the outside of the lever, insert the rod into the inside out.
    Reason: the lever on the rear handle is a little longer and I wanted to get the rod closer to it's original position.
    Doing it this way, will offset it just a tad, not much, and bring it closer to the handle.
    Oh ya, pop that small white bushing the rod rides on, and push it on the lever from the inside.

    I just know from research that several people have had issues using the stock back handles when not swapping the internals. Not saying it won't work, but I'd rather have it work 100% of the time than 98% of the time. It literally takes 2 minutes to pop the clip out of each handle and swap the levers.
