Outside Door Handle question
My 48 has the refrigerator type outside door handle, I like the later pushbutton style better. What do I need to change it and will the new parts mount to the same holes that hold the old unit?

Re: Outside Door Handle question
You need later model doors.

Re: Outside Door Handle question
you can put any style handles off any year car if you want. Just make sure you cut out the handle mount out of the doner car. I used mitsubiti handles

Re: Outside Door Handle question
So what all is different between the two? I believe I read where you have to have the pushbutton style to do bear claw latches, but those didn't come on doors with 1 piece windows. I can't imagine that they're different enough to warrant changing the whole door...but I don't know enough about it yet.
