Title: Interior Door Handle Spacer Plates Post by: Ken's 57 on August 16, 2008, 03:57:11 PM Would anyone have a couple of interior door handle spacer plates please? For some reason my front ones are thinner than the rears and it was really difficult to get the tool in between to get the spring clips to release. Because they're thinner the leading edges are also quite sharp and they have begun to cut into the trim. Not sure if they are repros or what's going on?? Thanks.

They aren't repros, just worn out. Chuck them away and get some good ones. I have dozens here but you should be able to pick some up in the NSW club

Title: Re: Interior Door Handle Spacer Plates Post by: mcl1959 on August 26, 2008, 09:55:41 AM Yes plastic started in HK, they are a straight swap and can be used if originality is not an issue. :)
