Small mod this afternoon.

I was going to fit the sound deadening to the passenger side this afternoon after work, but I also had a parcel from 4x4 overlander... which included these...

I cannot decide what leather / alloys ones to go for and thought these look great for a stop gap.

So door card looks like the....

Removed the card, handle, locks etc and fitted the sound proofing while off. Also managed to fix a lose passenger door handle (that's been lose for over 6 months!!) just needed a tighten up with a torx driver...

Put it all back together to get daughter one to brownies..

I actually really like them and they may be long term keepers, simple and suit the door lock I bought off a forum member (fitted that also while door card off)

Happy with this..

I think it would suit an anodized surround for the door pull now, is there such a thing?

Driver side and passenger side door done,

Drivers side for sure, it thuds rather than rattles. However oddly the passenger one done today still sounds a bit like a can... I'm probably going to take it apart again just to make sure all is tight etc its quick enough to do.

At least the drivers one is much better and that's the one used 90% of the time

I will get the other one sorted just ran out of time....

Thanks

The door pins are that make so at least should match?

Think they would suit it though, surprising how the small mods lift the interior

its a nice place to watch the world go by...

Personally i prefer the handle in alloy and not the surround, like Land rover have done. I am having these made at the minute. Andy
