I'm missing both external cab door handles, I notice Schofields sell reproduction ones for 18.00 each and there are quite a few selling them on Ebay, anyone with experience of using the reproduction ones?
Schofields also sell genuine ones, is it worth the extra?
Also having not taken the old one off, are they straightforward to fit?
Many thanks.

Re: Cab door handles
Genuine in my opinion, I bought the cheapo ones and although they work ok the keys looked like something made of playdo.
Easy to remove, there's a posi screw behind the door rubber then slide the handle out. The black plastic gasket things are available too if yours are knackered.

I'm still getting water in the footwells too, suspect it might be coming in through here perhaps.
