A trim panel is carried by the door in spaced apart relation from the door inner panel and has an opening registering with the lever. A trim bezel is installed in the opening and has a peripheral flange adapted to overlie the trim panel around the opening. A plurality of adjusting ratcheting fasteners are installed between the trim bezel and the door inner panel to enable secure attachment of the bezel to the door inner panel and gap free engagement of the peripheral flange of the bezel with the trim panel irrespective of dimensional variation between the door inner panel and the trim panel. A door handle is mounted on the lever by a ratchet adjusting connection so that the door handle is mounted on the lever at an adjusted position irrespective of the dimensional variation.
