Reply to "Inner door handles"

Finally got back around to the door handles today. Got em sorted to work like Carlos's.IMG_0681IMG_0682IMG_0683This was accomplished by swapping them left for right, taking off the nice thick steel mounting plates, removing the chains and then shimming in and gluing quarter inch-thick fiberglass reinforcement plates behind the handle and mounting bolt (used one to get it to look more like the original; might add the other later if it's janky). Push down to open.

I might still grind the corners off them where they come almost proud of the door voids.

I am pleased to say the door gaps are pretty good and the panels are pretty close to on plane also. Thanks to everyone who contributed advice and photos.
