98 Civic EX passenger outside door handle
Hello,
The outside door handle (the whole assembly as opposed to just the flip up part) is kinda coming out from the passenger door. I can push it back in, but it never goes flush, and when you open the door it comes back out a bit.
Does anyone have an iDea as to what might be involved in fixing this?
I'll post a picture of this later to better indicate what the problem is, since I think my description is a bit vague.

There should be 2 bolts holding the handle on from the inside. You have to remove the door panel and tighten the bolts if loose, or install bolts and tighten them.

Since it was a nice day, and I was replacing the muffler, I figured why not pull the door panel and tighten the bolts.
The front bolt isn't there to tighten.
I suspect this bolt (93403-06012-08) is the one I need, but only the back bolt is listed. The bolt has numerous uses in Hondas so I'm sure it's in stock at my local dealerships. I just would prefer to be sure.

To maybe save someone else the annoyance of looking for the bolt, it's an M6x12 (sorry! I didn't check the pitch). There's a short (maybe 4 or 5 mm) shoulder on it, and a 1.16 mm lock washer, and a 1.5 mm flat washer.
