Busted yet another door handle this morning attempting to open the door..
Replacement wise is there a metal arm version available? Not at all interested in chinee knockoffs.. And genuine is no doubt pretty pricey. Alternatively has anyone managed to make a different vehicles fit that is stronger or at least not as fragile as the one ones?

Those are exactly the same as the Ebay ones just twice as dear - Literally Ebay was $22 a pair.

I bought replacements from suziworld in heidleberg,
they were a stronger version.
Was a long time ago, but.
