Bah.

Anyone else done this. Went to slam my door earlier, after a shocking morning at work, only to have the handle come off in my hand......nice.

Phoned SIX local junkyards, who apparnently " haven't even seen a mk1 golf for years "

So now im going to have to run the possibly expensive gauntlet of the " VW specialists " :roll:

bad day.

There's always plenty of chinese and second hand handles on ebay. Try AUDI wreckers a lot of those used the same handles. If you get real desperate there's 3 sitting on my coffee table! (Might ake a while to reach you though, post is slow this time of year.) You can swap the passenger side one to the drivers side in the short term, you'll just need to swap a few of the internals around. It's pretty obvious when you hold them side by side.

Happy hunting!

I have a complete set of 4 door handles that will fit. They are new and you can have em for $50.

sorry, my mistake......INTERIOR door handle.

Still very cross.....

[Peter Jones]

Even so..... Audi, Porsche 924, Late aircooled beetle, type3 etc INTERIOR handles look mighty similar! Beetle ones are even chrome!

who needs it $hit happens

Get ones from an Audi, upto about 1996 and they are chrome. Cut the plastic surround down and bolt em in.

You could always use one out of a TT, they aint much good for anything else.

Postage

Seems ironical that we Aussie Golfers often have to resort to Pommie ebay for parts that are difficult to get here! Anyway, I have two and you can have them if you pay the postage to the old country. And please be a bit more gentle to your baby!

gentle ? never.... :twisted:
