Replacing broken handleI exterior door handle

What is your question?

I've removed broken one and pulled two others from pick n pull no problem. But when installing in door there is not enough space between window glass and door skin. I've tried every angle and method short of removing window regulator. There must be a trick. Any help is appreciated

Hi it should be a simple pop in handle with two retaining screws. One screw close to the access whole at the actuator and the second screw straight four deep in the access whole. The handle should hook on the left end just inside the door panel
