Question Door handles

Hey guys,
Would any of you happen to know if all of the door handles on the E63 are interchangeable? The easy entry buttons (both locking and unlocking) on my drivers door are working intermittently. So I'm curious if I can swap it with one of my rear handles until i get around to actually replacing it.

If this isn't an option, does anyone know about how much the handles cost?

TIA

Front and rear are not interchangeable. Check on www.parts.com . I've ordered a few keyless go door handles on there.

Price sounds right. The DIY is probably the easiest thing you will ever do on the car lol.

The arm that hooks to the door latch is different in the front and rear. The rear arm is slightly longer and hooks differently. I've done the replacement in both my E55s.


Here's a picture of the front and rear handles for the CLS from the DIY thread. The differences are similar in the E55:
