Well I managed to snap my drivers door handle off the other day when the door was frozen shut, fail I know.

The problem is they are riveted on, can I just drill the rivets off n=and replace with bolt on handles?

Cheers

I upgraded from pov spec black handles to colour coded ones off a hdi, mine were bolt on and others riveted...I bolted the colour coded ones on mine and been ok for a few years
