Default I may need a door handle

The passenger doorhandle on my car has been broken fro some time. The car is not running currently so it is no big deal, however once the clutch is back in i plan on putting it back on the road.

The cheapest way to fix it is to find the the metal tab that broke off and putting it back on with some JB Weld. Is that worht it or should i just get a new door handle. And while i'm at it, should i just swith to 968 handles, if the price difference is not so much.

Does anybody have a passenger door handle they are seling.

TIA

If the tab is the one that holds the actuator arm, then I seriously doubt anything will be strong enough to hold the tab on. You should be able to pick up a handle from someone who has already done a 968 swap fairly cheap.
