Door handle trim pieces

Removing handles to change out broken window regulator and change out window rubber and felt, busted up the plastic handle to door panel trim on all four handles.
Came up with a plan that was way too much fun not to share:
(1) Drink four beers
(2) Cut 1 1/4" holes in bottoms of empty cans
(3) With wife's kitchen scissors cut out the bottoms and trim to fit
(4) Hold new pieces against panel and snap on handles
(5) Go in house and have another beer for job well done
