no this has never been done before... ever :D

 

what audi handles do you have? You obviously gotta cut out the handles from the audi door, weld it nicely in place on your rado, and find some way to connect it to the original corrado door mechanism. Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy a weld-in kit than cutting up two doors tho?

I would have thought buying a kit would be easier although higher cost - £125 from venom

the kits still dont have the linkages they are in effect just what you have.

My C is going doen to JMR to have the Audi A6 delocked flush handle conversion done at the end of the month. I got the aboue kit from Richard at Venom. After speaking to John ( who has done 3 or 4 of these conversions now) The only things you need to make up are the rods which connect within the door to mate up with the mech. Cost wise you are looking at £125 for handle and plate kits £250ish for cutting,inserting platework, welding and then respraying door pus £150 for the sprip sown and making up of the rods and fitting all back togesther. Give 16vG60 a PM .

ok all depends what door handles ur doing

 

Ive got A6 handles on mine and as far as i know i was the 2nd car in the uk to do it (Tom supercharged Vr had it first)

 

any how i know of no probs with the early door handles but with the late style like mine if you dont get it right as the gap is tight first time u put ur window up u will shatter happen to a few people i know

 

I know John (16vg60) is getting it right as we had a good talk about mine and ive had no problems at all

 

as for pics have a look at my sig

why not jus have a solenoid behind the door handle so instead of pulling you jus tap it with yr finger,,, wouldnt it make life a lot easier...

thats cool just take ur time making sure u get them both perfect i.e gaps etc

 

yep remember cheesy's c corrado when it came out ;) mine had them for about 4 years now as it was about a year i had the car someone tried to nick it and it the only way i could think off that would stop people nicking my car without breaking a window

 

FurkiG60 - not really mate very simple to make up "the arm" ive actually did a touch so u can only open my car a certain so that if im sitting at lights no one can open my door without me asking them lol ;)

A20 LEE, If done properly..

My friend bought some doors pre-done, and he seems to have some minor problems with one door.
