- UPDATE: I managed to refit the door button. The small green plastic peg (picture in the video) needs to be rotated until the slot in the side of it can accept the vertical part of the rod.

You can get the chrome trim round the lock to stay on by drilling small holes through the inside part of the chrome trim into the moulding that holds the lever and screwing in small self tapping screws. The grey moulding into which it fits has a double skin so as long as you only drill through the first skin the repair cannot be seen once it is fitted. Much stronger than the original flimsy tags. I should have taken photos when I did it last week!
My sympathies regarding the push button rod. I have spent frustrated ages getting this to fit - and have succeeded in the end! I will try your method next time - there is sure to be a next time!
Nice one mate good little fix 🤙👍
Door card needs to com of again to fit the lock button. There’s no way around it 🙈Otherwise a good job!! Doing the same to my 75 when spring arrives in Norway ☺️
Great stuff buddy
Just to inform anybody following this, there is no need to remove the chrome trim around the door pull, simply remove the screw and unhook the door release cable from behind thus releasing the whole door pull with the chrome surround still attached 👍😁👍
That is indeed another way but I did mention in the video that it can be very tricky to get the hook onthe door release cable back in again 👍
V8?
@rovercoupe7104 Afraid not man😅
Remove?
Broken
If its separated its cause he broken it
Its a single piece
Not a trim
The oval chrome and ddor handle single piece
Great advice to not broken it

Can someone give a suggestion to swap the inside handle wity new ones without broke the oval chrone surrounding again?
Hi Bud, are the rear window sill`s both the same on the left and the right? I have found two new ones but they say right rear door. can you help . all the best J
Hi no they are handed, so you will need to find another one for the left door.
Thanks .
Hey, you don't know any part number for the part?
Sorry no mate, I don't think they are available new.
Where did you get yours from?
@@Funsave2012 They came with the car when I bought it buddy.
There is no need to do anything with the door handle, when the door card is free of the metal center clip, all that is needed is to slide the handle towards the back of the car and pull it away and out towards the front of the car, then push it through the hole. To re fit, push it back through the hole, slide it in sideways towards the back of the car, then slide it towards the front of the car a little.
Thanks, yeah I know that now 😂 I was able to go to a scrapyard and get a good handle from a breaker using the suggested method. Much better!
