Wobbly Door Handles

Noticed the other day that the black plastic bits to the left of each door handle on all 4 doors are wobbly and if you look at the rubber seal where they join the door, it looks like they are not sealing very well. Anyone else's like this Question To clarify if my description isn't very good, it is the bit of the handle where you would put the key to open the door on the passenger side if the central locking failed. Cheers in advance for your responses.

Morning Mojo - the drivers door and rear door small bits are all held on the same way. On the drivers side (the small part of the handle) has a hook to the left of it and this is slotted in first, then two clips at the front hold it securely in place. They certainly shouldn't wobble. The passenger side is a bit different as you say with the emergency key cover, but either way they should be all rigid. The rubber at the back of the handle is held in place by a cut out in the door.
I swapped my handles a while ago and here's some pictures:

Thanks Mcphersonstrut, that is great info. Think mine are probably okay then looking at how they are fixed on (thought they might have been screwed on from the inside and mine were loose). I just didn't expect there to be any play in them at all but some movement is probably normal.
