AChipmunk,

I don't think so, because if you sitting in the pass. seat the handle would be grabbed by your right hand and the first thing you would do is pull it toward you/pull it up. Imagine the face of a clock with the #9 being centered. It seem to me (I'll pull the cover in a few days) That the latch bar connected at the bottom would pull away from the rear of the door area releasing the lock/latch? Pushing down on the handle should engage the bar to push against the lock/latch to jam or force it to lock.

I'll take a look at the posistion of the handle as how it sits tonight, loosen the set screw and try and reposition it, but I don't think that will mater because the pivot shaft still would act the same. (Does that make sense?).

The only thing I can figure is that when the PO installed the pivot it was put in at the wrong angle and the latch bar is at the top instead the botton of the pivot point. and it woud act in reverse. I'll let you know later.
