Default Door handles

One of my deoor handles broke today. Is it hard to replace them? Can I use one from another door or do I need to buy new ones? How in the world do you put them in and take them out?

just get it replaced. you can buy them at 50resto.com. It is attached with a rivet so you well need a rivet gun to replace it (like 15-20 bucks). Unless you get the bolt kind.
