MK3 style door handles

[jtoomasson at yahoo.com (Jeff Toomasson)]

I don't see why it couldn't be made to work.

Incidentally, I just swapped the door handles from my old 16v to my '84
cabby (which IIRC has same mechanism as a mk1). The only thing I had to do
was swap the "business end" of the handle which just requires unscrewing it
from the lock cylinder.

Even if that doesn't translate, I'm sure the mechanism inside the door can
be swapped out....

I'm ordering a set and will report on its feasibility (if anyone can wait
that long!  :p  )
