Door pull plastic replacement?
I am so tired of replacing these things every other time I have to take the door panel off.............*%#$$%
Is there anything else out there that you folks have used to replace them besides GM Plastic? |

If you get the billet door strip pieces, they come with little billet things to cover the strap ends.

All mine only have one leg
 If they keep coming off, take them off & tighten the strap screws down TIGHT. I take them off/on no problem. Is someone being too rough with them?

I know what you mean by one-legged! I am more careful taking these things off than I am when defusing a bomb.LOL Could be little green men doing it when I am not looking but then I would have to ask how they got around the alarm  Thanks for the reply, BTW: We want A/C updates when you have them. You could get some Krylon and paint your truck white and then you wouldn't need A/C!!!! LOLOLOL |

You know those little green men too??? Yeah about the A/C thing - I will as soon as I get my act together. Still have to scrounge the cash
 It is not going to be cheap. I like my paint! Black looks awesome but boy is it a b*tch! You clean and it never get clean and it is HOT!Quote:

Nope, fresh out of little green men in this galaxy!!LOL
Black is my favorite too by far.......though I don't think I would want one in black 'cause I spend too much time in desert areas. Know what I mean?!? Quote:

well you could do like i did, i just did away with the strap and got some material that matched my interior and recovered that part of the door panel to cover up the holes. it looks cleaner, and like you said i got tired of seeing those broken things.

I guess I am too use to the pull strap to lose it that way. |
