just so you know, the more budget micras didn't actually have the holes drilled to fit the handle that pops this, it should be possible to make the holes not that i have tried. but just so you don't get someone complaining that it doesn't fit their car.
the facelift has the holes there, as all models came with a fuel realse cable...but basemodel prefacelifts didnt even have a fuel realse cable! so you will need to drill.
