Fitted Cupra Rear Door Handle

[STOCKY]

Well one of them at least....what a nightmare it is, took me 4hours to fit it.

Door card (the fabric bit) clips are a nightmare to get off, pull and hope you dont break anything lol

Remove about 6 screws from the door card itself....
1. at the bottom of door card
2. under door handle
3. 2x behind black fabric on door card
4. 2x behind speaker

Disconnect speaker cable and door opening cable

Push the door card itself up as hard as you can....pray you dont break anything

Remove screws from handle and remove door seals (they are a bitch to get back on right.

......Ill finish this tommorow with a guide and pics if I get time.


The point of this post is pay someone else to do it...cause you will regret starting!!!!

Not what i was hoping for, i think il pop to the dealers tommorrow for a quote.

[STOCKY]

I have the pics sorted...took me an 1hour and 20mins to do the other side.

Unfortunately I wont have time to do the guide until I get home from Inters this weekend.

Ill have it ready for Tuesday night

Whats the difference between the FR and Cupra door handle? BTW the White FR looks very nice!

 

[simmytt]

fr b & c pillars are matt finish, cupra ones are gloss finish.

where is the guide with pics? please

 

[jlovrek]

hm, i bought cupra b and rear door handle for about 45€ (on action over my friend), but in the local service they want 70€ to install only rear one... i think that is over to much so if some could write detailed guide I will be very greatfull... thanks

Hi,

Stocky - any chance of the guide?

TIA,

Easy on those mudflaps, chaps

I wouldn't recommend the mudflaps, or at least, avoid the front ones.

I have them and as they flex back and forth, they wear the paint off the front
lower sill where they contact.

Rear ones are OK though.

Nope Sorry

Was taking to much time and never got to finish it

Think there is a guide on a spanish SEAT site some where

 

[flakmunky]

Thanks anyway... I know it can be a pain writing up guides... You start out with good intentions and then life takes over

You don't happen to have a link to the guide or at least the forum?
