I encountered the same issue with the broken plastic around the torx screw head and the next issue of not being able to take the handle apart or find a part number for it. I ended up filling the screw holes with epoxy and then drilling them. It is holding fine the past 4 years

 

I fixed it without buying any parts.
used gorrila glue to rebuild the broken area near the screw holes on the handle.
made sure it dries nicely before putting on car again.

 

Im trying to picture how it would look like. When you open your trunk, do you still grab it by the handle and pull it up?

 

Yes. Nothing shows as far as the repair. I can take some pictures tonight

 

You mean this:

huh?

 

You broke up with your girlfriend for breaking off your trunk handle? Mine is in tact completely and still doesn't seem too stable.

 

I dont know how to remove the wiring ?

 

when you remove the trunk handle, after 2-3" of wire you will see a plug

 

bump. I was at autozone to get some fluids. But anyways, they had both jb weld and epoxy(60sec or 5min).

Which one would be a better hold?

 

Thanks guys. This worked perfectly.
