Default Replace rear door handle assembly on 2008 XJ8L

A tree on the edge of my driveway seemed to have jumped into the driveway (this is my story to the wife) as I made a right turn to park under my house (it is an odd house - see jumping trees). The right rear door handle was damaged and needs to be replaced. Got a good used door handle assembly on eBay and now I am asking for any sage advice on how to proceed to replace the assembly. Looked on YouTube and got some guidance. Does anyone have any suggestions for me?
