If you cut the door cards out, can you get to the right bits in the door to open it easily?
I don't understand how it won't open form the inside?

Sorry to jump the post mate!  :grin:  But I was looking to replace all four door handles on my valver this month.....

I saw the m3 chinese ones on ebay...are these the ones that have given you problems?

Whadya recommend instead? Original MK2 from VW? MK3 ones from VW? GSF?

Thanks in advance!

I think the chinese ones are O.K, just make sure you have one side working before you start takeing the last working handle off !
