You could've put 2 large nuts on the bolts and not hacksaw it off.

Watched your video, it took me about an hour to replace thr handle. One thing I did wrong was that I removed the screws before I removed the latch arm. Big mistake. Thank you.

Great video. Thanks for taking the time to film, edit, and comment on your work.

Brave man prying on plastic parts below freezing temps (-:

BTW, the opposite jaws on the caliper are for taking "inside" measurements (e.g. when measuring from the edge of a nut to the end of the bolt before cutting).
