Re: custom door handle???
slammed1 did a write up on this topic (sorry, I'm not smarter enough to figger out how to make a linkifier to the specific post). He're a pic though to pique your curiosity. In case you're wondering- they're Dodge Neon handles and Ram latches.

Re: custom door handle???
I haven't done it yet, but I will be making some billet aluminum door handles, they will be smooth and sleek, and use the existing mounting holes. I plan to use solenoids in the doors and a micro push button on the inside of the door handle, so when you grab the handle, you activate the solenoid, popping the door open. We're real busy here so I havent had time to mill a prototype yet. I will post when I have one made.

Re: custom door handle???
I saw one that someone did with PT Cruiser handles. They were really cool. Had a updated look but was still kind of old school.
