Saul 0 Posted December 10, 2004 Hi All My 1990 16v has a broken drivers door handle. I've been told this is common but not sure what the common fault is with the handle. With mine its a part of the cast metal broken off that holds a spring in place, can this be fixed ? If not any ideas for where to get a handle at a decent price ? its the handle with wireing attached. Cheers Saul Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted December 10, 2004 There is a repair kit now available, search on here... New handles are £50 from GPC or If you have remote locking you could fit the rear passat handles and mechs (again have a search for info) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daves16v 1 Posted December 10, 2004 You need to be sure it's the common striker arm that has broken. You say it's a cast metal part that holds the spring in place. The striker arm doesn't hold a spring in place. Look at my signature pic to identify the striker arm. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
