audi door handles on mk2
« on: 18 June 2004, 14:56 »
has anyone here done this?

how much can i expect to pay a bodyshop to weld the handles into the door? is it better to buy a patern handle kit or cut up an audi door?

every bodyshop will vairy. best to take them your car so they can see the state your doors are in now and see what they say.

better to buy pattern handles with the weld in plate. The Audi doors are sort of 'curved' and would probably be more hassle :-\

I have seen these on ebay! They just replace your existing handle, don't know how good they are?

saves all the cost of welding etc :)
