Door handle carrier. - HELP!!!

Hey everyone. So I'm attempting to do the carrier handle or handle carrier, whatever it is, for the rear passenger side.
For the life of me I cannot get that 4mm Allen bolt that holds the key lock block on, to line up. I almost cross threaded it, but I caught it early pulled it all apart and saved the thread.
I'm to the point I'm putting the broken carrier back on and it's the same shit. I cannot catch the bolt thread. It doesn't line up and the handle won't sit flush either. I don't know what I'm doing wrong or what I missed. Any tips please.
This was supposed to be a quick fix and it essentially ruined our day as I've been out here all day trying to catch this stupid bolt and hoping it will make the handle fall flush and I can button it all up.


As u can see here. The handle does not sit flush at all. The Phillips screw and nut that hood lady the handle on, are both in tight.
