Title: Different types of Door handles!
Post by: RandomJord on 18 March 2009, 21:47

So on my corrado, i dont like the door handles, and ive decided i rather like this car and want to at last carry out a full project, build a 'complete' car rather than just do the basics as ive done on previous motors.

I was at the bodyshop today getting a quote for the rear arch an sill rust to be sorted an thought to myself 'those door handles are sh!t' so im thinking, what are my options to replace them? i know audi 80 an a6 are quite popular swaps, but i dont want popular! i want different! Like when Greg Howell put Barchetta handles on his MK4. iv got a few ideas but dont know enough about mechanisms an sh!t to know if they would work. il post some of my liked handles up, but would love to hear other peoples suggestions too

Cheers

Jords

Put a picture of your car up, and the handles you like and we will vote!

How about a bit of mk1 mx5 action? Not sure how they'd look on a rado though.

Also, alfa 156, but again might look weird on a corrado.

You want flush or sticky outy type?
