Are they one piece or 3 piece door panels? because it looks to me like they would be 3 piece?

I'd have to guess with 3 because my parts person at my local GM dealership told me they would have to take my door apart if I wanted new handles (btw they're fcuking liars its not a 2 hour job its 20 minutes and you don't take the door apart you take a rubber cover off a bolt..)

Its seperate pieces plastic welded together,

Bolt behind the handles, In the pocket to close the door, 2 plastic pins on the end, Plastic pop rivets everywhere else. Snap everything off and pull out/up and the entire panel comes out

so it's three pieces joint together, because by my panel the top is torn so there is no way I can just order the top piece? but rather need to get the entire panel? (bare in mind I just came home and it is late at night and im half asleep so I can't fully comprehend the answer haha)

More than likely they only have one part number for the complete door panel..
