Colin Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 I imagine on the mk5/6 models it would be quite hard to do with the way the line goes down the side of the car where the handel is............. I suspect the best way would be to get another door, cut a section out and weld it in, and smooth it over the handel to get the lines right............... Costly, but would look PIMP.

Foxy Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 (edited) Is it legal to remove handles from the outside of the car? How on earth do people open them in the case of an accident if the driver and/or passengers are unconscious? I understand it's only legal in the US for non-street cars.
