Post by: dabill on 20 July 2007, 14:14: the only place pretty much u can, a VAG dealership.. (VAG - Volkswagen Audi Group) So any local volkswagen dealer with a parts desk should be okies. if not, hunt around some scrappies, really easy to remove, 2 bolts and your away... if not, then fleabay, but make sure it states they are original or propper VAG ones...not poo ones.

Post by: golf_clutz on 20 July 2007, 15:00: mate, I have a pair of rear door handles going spare, genuine VAG, but used. Ã‚£10+ postage for the pair. pm me if interested. I may have a boot mech as well but I'd have to dig it out.
