Cheers buddy,
I'm the mug! It wasn't even on my car!!! It was on Jeegnesh's!!! He's not complained so I guess it is still fine. Do it and do a search for one on eBay as and when they come up! I think $tealers are quoting £61????

Re: outer door handle carrier
luckily, i read this thread the other day and the 1st thing i thought was "oh no, the handle is surely gonna freeze and stiffen up due to the weather"
so i was thinking of ways to get around it?
low and behold, !! went out to the X this morning to do the skool run and what was i faced with???? a very stiff door handle when i tried to open the door !!!
i thought theres no freakin way im gonna tug hard on it, so i boiled the kettle and slowly poured boiling water all around the handle !!!
what happened next was a BIG relief !!
the handle released and was perfect again !!
so thanking you guys for the prior warning, otherwise i would have just tugged on it and surely broken it
