So today I had the dreaded interior door handle issue,yup you know what it's like go to open the passenger door and pop off comes the handle from the cable. Well after the 1st test didn't work,the clip is fractured so out with the epoxy resin and and little bit of plastic to keep it strong. Thought that would be ok. But to make it really strong a bent a brake pad shim and also bonded that to it . clipped all back on the car and will test it tomorrow once set.
What I did notice is with the door card unplugged the interior lights have a mind of their own as do the footwell lights. So if you do end up having issues be aware the foot well lights stay on all the time when the doorcard is removed.ohh and you get a red triangle on dash followed by message door open.
Also I have been testing different things to get the plastic back to a nice colour and not the sun bleached grey, so far vasiline has held up for a week now. Pics to follow once rain has stopped down here in Cornwall.
