113445, WTB: Outer driver side door handle
Posted by NX112, Dec-24-08 04:17 PM
I need one...badly. I don't care what color it is just as long as I can open the door on the driver side.

Send a PM to stangmurdera, he owns Miller Import Parts, which advertises on our site. He parts out Eclipses.

He should be able to get you one fast :thumbsup

Get AZDave's kit. Mine have been in for over 5 years without a problem. But then again the first time I hear someone open my door with more-than-needed force they get a warning, escalating to a fist in the chest, and then a ban from the vehicle, heh. Just do not be so abusive to the door handle.
