Haha, my passenger one snapped months ago and I never bothered to fix it as mine still worked :p

It's really not that difficult though, once you work out what goes where and how it all works it's easy, I didn't even use the haynes :p

This is what it looks like.

Jus take your doorcard off and have a lewk! :D

that looks like a crazy bit of kit.

It was taking the door card off in the first place that caused the problem! I got angry I couldn't get the handle off so I just ripped it off :p

:lol:

Getting angry and ripping things off = bad..unless it's sex.

To get the winders off just press in either side of the round clip and push it up, then it will unclick and come off ;d

If you take your door panel off and look at how it's put together it should be fairly simple bud!

I went out and tried taking some rolling shots with my brother the other day, I think some of them are good.

You can be the judge of that though :p

Yeah could try that.

They wont be permanent anyway so I'm not that bothered, I'll just use them until I buy a proper colour set if I still like them.

Cheers mate.

This is what they look like.

Thanks guys.

Yeah black would probably be cool, I'll try black maybe if I get bored of the red.

Or my original idea was gold :D

Red bolts all on now, they look pretty good and no paint chipped off when tightening them up :D
