Those parts haven't been available for a long time, Terry.  The only way you would get one, is possibly from a car being scrapped. The cross sectional shape is nothing like anyone else can supply. I've checked a few times.

Was afraid of that! Thanks Roy

A bit organic ....   

If you are interested I will try and remove them and check them out for you?

Be careful though Graham, they are liable to crack or break easily, as the plastic has become brittle with age.

The outer one should lift easy enough at the rear but it goes under the trim at the front, so you need to slide it rearwards as you lift the rear to slide it out from under the front mirror trim. (well that is on the left door - the right door mirror trim is missing!)

The inner one if required, is best removed after removing the door panel trim and glass if I remember correctly, as you need to sort of roll it around slightly.

Very interested GP. You are correct Roy. You need to remove the interior door trim, they have lips which (very carefully) need to be opened slightly by prying a screw driver blade between the upper door and the trim from inside (very awkward) unfortunatly the first one I removed broke before I could get a good look at it to see the small clips.

Oooh err missus... Thanks for the advice, I will see what happens then???

Bought one at Simon last year. Not cheap but not too expansive either. Should be available on their website.

[TELBOY]

Afraid not, said they had none at the moment.

Noted: Yes, that would be possible.

ace, will leave it with you,
found the other door handle!
They are the same as  a peageot 505 but you need swap the gubbins on the inside..

Thanks for the messages, I need 2 units which work well with out play, not bothered on the aesthetics as they can be painted.

I will pick up from Telboy when i can. So how much do i owe people ?

AND what is the story with the red shell ? ? ? ?
