Replace Hood Release Handle

So my hood release handle has an issue that it does not retract back all the way after opening the hood so that when you bring the hood down it latches but just pops open a bit instead of closing fully. If you pull the handle and pop the hood open and then push the handle back in all the way, then you can close the hood properly. I have a replacement hood release handle, but not sure how to replace it. Couldn't find a post on here.
