		Ive got a 306 HDI (China Blue) and recently the door handle snapped, got a replacement one same colour on ebay, but realised cant fit it due to the fact the original was riveted on, so I have decided to try and locate drivers side door with handle but cannot seem to finds one, anyone have any ideas where can get one quickly? Thanks.

		You can drill out the rivets to change the handle.
I can't help with sourcing doors though, just try local scrap yards but I guess you've already done that.
