Default Exterior Door Handle Take Off

Hey all, first off first post here of sure to be many.
Anyways I'm currently in the process of vinyling my 94 Cherokee flat black.
I've run into a problem with the doors though because i can not figure out how to get the handles off of the exterior. Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Also, I'm looking for a red LED for the dome light, but don't know what exact type of bulb i'd need so if anybody had feedback on that, it would be appreciated as well.

Pull the door panel, obviously. To gain access to the two bolts that hold the handle on, remove the latch mechanism by removing the three torx bolts and just push it down into the door. Super easy!
