Exterior door handle and washer bottle 200 1990

My driver's door handle has popped the rivet...again. I have tried peening the rivet back in place and this is already a replacement handle so I am looking to buy another used handle. My understanding has always been the left handles and right handles are different but front to back they are the same (for the same side). This guy is implying that left and right are the same:

Am I mistaken or is he?

Also, a cautionary tale. Those that are north of the Mason-Dixon keep in mind that our cars have 20+ year old plastics and it is cold out there. I refilled my washer bottle with -30 F fluid yesterday while the car was warming up and put my hand through the top of the bottle while trying to snap the cap back on.

I can find nothing aftermarket for a replacement so it looks like a used one or Volvo new.
