Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Golf GTI door panel

    HI Guys

    I own a 2008 Golf GTI. The interior door handle has broken off the door panel. I am looking for any suggestions to fix this. The plastic clips and all that have snapped off.
    I have found on the net a 2005 Golf comfortline drivers side door panel. Looks the same as mine. Will this be ok for my 08 Golf Gti??
    Or if anyone has any suggestions for where I may find some aftermarket parts for a door panel would be great!

    Thanks Heaps

    You can buy the door handle/grab handle online new for not much.
    Which one is it that has broken? The "grab" handle with the window and mirror switches in it, or the actual door opening handle?

    I bought new grab handles for both the drivers and passengers doors and from the UK on eBay for less than $100 delivered.
    I have seen the opening handles on eBay as well, but not taken any notice of them.

    Also one thing I have realised (by accident) is that there appears to be two different opening handles. My car has 3 that looked like a brushed or dull chrome, but then there is one handle that is a shiny "bright" chrome finish.

    Hope this helps a little.
