Fitted perhaps not the optimum way. The headlining and door seal get in the way.
I took the headlining off and used one of the holes for the existing headliner fastner and drilled a new hole into the gutter for the other fixture. I fitted with a bolt and some wide washers down through the gutter. Then put thr headlining back on followed bu the handle plus washer plus nut.luckily the bolt head didnt spin and I could tighten the nuts. not great cosmetically but helps herself to climb in. |

I used one from a Fiat Uno, I had to cut the roof lining little bit so I could get the handle flush with the roof frame, drill 2 holes and screw it in, works perfectly, the wife is very happy now.
