Sliding door external handle broke off!

Post by Melee »

My doors been a bit stiff at the best of times! Anyhow the bloody handle snapped off and sliced right through my finger joint which was/is painful...particularly as I'm a bass player too!

Sooooo, where can i get a new/second hand one (Normal RHD T25 with sliding door on the nearside) and is it easy to fit?

Thanks in advance :pimp

We need one too, I have just pulled out the filler from where they obviously got fed up with the prices for them and just filled in the hole.

They go up to 65 quid !
