Smoothed door handles MK2 Golf....Hmmm

[tobybrennan]

 
okay, nice smooth looking doors, the smooth Euro look a few people have gone for, some love it some hate, i kinda warming to it myself...but...

how do they lock the doors? what exactly is involved? i know nothing on the subject so any info on it would be great thanks in advance!!!

its going to involve some form of central locking but any kits or such that have to be bought?

Do you mean Audi A4 handles, if so you need to weld in a section of the door.

Major work to get them in and working

[tobybrennan]

no i mean no handles at all, so completly flushed out, i see alot of people have them, just wonder how the doors open, central locking and a solenoid maybe? i havent a clue just wondered if anyone knew

You need door poppers.

yep, need to rig up this shizzle...


Some people with more modern cars have put a switch in the door mirror to open.  If you have a posh alarm, you could add the poppers to a pare channel.  or you could save yourself the bother and not bother.

need remote central locking and door solenoids fitting aswell, buttong on key fob or under the mirror to actually pop the doors open

you need a form of getting into the car from outside to pass mot, ie button under the mirror

Hmm i dont like the MOT pass reg, so i have to fit it to an alarm to pass the mot then, else any bugger can come alone and "button-pop" it open :S


iv seen the kit from DSE engineering, £140 it is for the 2 door set-up seems like a fair price to me... just need to address the MOT poop...

doesn't have to be linked to an alarm to pass mot, you need a form of getting into the car from the outside to pass mot in the event of an accident and emergency services need to get you out of car etc

doesn't even need to be linked to an alarm to stop people just pressing button to open door, you just need seperate remote central locking
