i am looking for a good rear passenger handle remote. thats what they call it. i call it the bit that screws to the inside of the door that the inside door handle fits on to. it has to have good teeth on it.
i am not sure how much they are worth , i actually have 2 good ones but they are drivers side.

thanks for all your suggestions, i really didn't look inside the handles i was to busy picking out the best chrome. that might explain how some work and some dont. thanks i'll keep you posted.

got my upholstery redone and the upholsterer used a little to much foam on the door trims. combine that with the door cards i made ' we have a problem.but only on some of the handles. they dont seem to be going on to the spline enough to catch. you have to push it hard on , then turn. ive tried pull...

yeah my health is now good and i'm enjoying using the old girl as my daily driver. everyone says i'm mad but whats the point in building a car like this and hiding it in the garage to pull out once a month and wash it. i drive it to work ,to the plaza, where ever i go and love driving it :thumbsup: ...

it was a very expensive fix , a $3.90 flasher unit. though the ghost blinkers are still there.its weird when i start the car the faint ghost blinkers flash for about 20 seconds then stay on constant until you turn on the blinker.spooky
