jughead540 Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Hows every1 goin? I'm in NSW and I'm trying to get some information into the legalities of shaved door handles. To start the car has a remote central locking system fitted. For the moment i have shaved off the RH/R door handle and I fabricated out of a very tough wire, a hook attached the the door mechanism, that rises out of the weatherstrip at the back of the quarter window. When u push down the door opens and has a strong return spring so the hook returns. I need to find out every angle eg (Engineering, other peoples experiences) so i no wheather to continue on with my customisation Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jughead540 Posted June 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Yeah?!!! I spoke to the local mechanic that does the registration on my vehicles and said that as long as it has a mechanical & not an electrical opening system that it shuld b sweet. He said that i need handles for the shear purpose of having an accidnet. But if what you have said is 100% from the RTA then i guess I'm sweet, hey?? This all come around from the mini truck scene and thought i wuld spice up a rolla. This has really made my day! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jughead540 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 If u r in an accident, regardless of handles or not they just smash everything around u n if its serious they cutt ur car up with the jaws of life. Its all personal choice to who wants to shave off or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
