Trip to East Kilbride today!

[sduk]

Well got up at 6.30am and hit the road to Kev's house in East Kilbride (near Glasgow), took me about 2 hours, and a 200 mile roundtrip but it was worth it!

On the agenda were my god awfull door handles! So several hours of hard work we had changed them all :D

I replaced them with matt black set from a Rover 400 but kept my ZS handle part, so i now have one of a kind handles :D

They look just the same (dont even notice the paint difference really) but they are a million times stronger and actually work :D

A few pics of the day.....

Try spraying some 'plus gas' or 'penetrating spray' (that stuff isn't designed to be sprayed on body parts if you know what I mean :whistle: it stings! ) on them.

I think Maxxed Ross mentioned he could get hold of some.......failing that the local hardware store should have some or maybe even Screwfix.....
