Straight from the service manual

REMOVAL
1) Remove inside handle bezel (if equipped).
2) Remove inside lock knob.
3) Remove door trim.
With inside handle bezel tilted, turn door trim
90 counterclockwise to remove it (if equipped with inside han-
dle).
4) Remove back door / rear gate sealing cover.
5) Remove back door / rear gate lock control rod.
Unlock back door / rear gate lock rod pin retainer and disconnect
control rod.
6) Disconnect back door lock motor lead wire (if equipped).
7) Remove lock assembly.


this should then allow you access to the rear of the handle so you can remove it
