TVR Style Door Entry Upgrade

[superdave]

Hi all,

I've been speaking to another Esprit owner who lives by me and is not on these forums. He owns a 90SE and has converted his ugly door handles to the no handle with button under the wing mirror.
I've asked him whether he would offer this service to the forum owners and he agreed.
Here's some quick pictures of the finished article. If you require any further information then please e-mail me.

BTW, I think this is only availible to UK owners at the moment.

All it requires is a "shaved door handle" kit and a fair amount of body work. It's a very popular mod among the custom car crowd. Any good body shop with fiberglass experience can do it.

Hi there, I never for one minute said it was anymore than what you describe. It's just that some people either don't have the confidence or the 'know how' to do it themselves.
It's like everything else that is put on forums, it helps out some people. Others know how to do it already. This is why we have forums.

True

Also it boosts the 'database' side of the forum. I use the search on this forum a LOT.

When i had my stumble at boost problem recently, i found on there people had asked the same questions, with the same symptoms and with answers that SOLVED my problem.

All without me having to ask the forum. When i mended it,i added my experience to one of these older threads which bought it back to the top of the forum as a Question-answer-solution.
(as i feel you have to add 2c too,other wise there would be nothing there )


PS I like the handles (or rather lack of them), personaly i think i would always find use for the time/money elsewhere on the car. But they are a wish list item for sure.

Is that going to be your next mod then Dave ?

[superdave]

No Adrian, would have only ever considered it when I had my last Esprit. I like the new GM style ones thank you very much.

Relax tiger, I was just adding to the discussion. I thought people might be interested in more details than you pst provided.

Sorry, didn't mean to bite. Must have had little sleep last night. Thanks for the prompt but this project isn't my baby so I don't really know a great deal.

BTW, Just had a look at your profile. I have to say that Iam not a great lover of white cars but yours in the S4 style looks absolutely gorgeous! Are there many of these in white about?

[karmavore]

No worries. Thanks for the kind words.

The pic is a few months old. Here's a newer one.

I think there are a few white S4s about...
