driver's door handle mod

[dgrs4sd]

so I would like to start making my car a bit more theft "proof" by removing the door lock link inside the driver's door, but I also want to eliminate the lock mechanism from the driver's door altogether

my question is with regard to my car, it is a full RS4 body conversion. are the door handles different?

where can I get a good deal on a passenger side door handle and what does this install require?

this is my car, do they look the same with regard to the regular S4 door handles?


thanks in advance

No one would steal it if they could see those tail lights first.

JK, ha...I had to take a stab. Why not opening up the door through the window regulator DIY, and messing around in there?

[dgrs4sd]

tell me about it! i friggin' H A T E those lights! i have been trying to get my hands on a set and think i may have finally found some

DO NOT BUY the aftermarket ones on Ebay, they have the wrong mounting pattern for the bulb bracket in the rear, they have the wagon pattern on the sedan lights and they will not work without changing wiring and brackets

i want the clean look of the door handle for visuals as well as some theft deteranceness (is that a word...i don't think so)

i also will do the inside door mod too, just wanna wait to do Dynamat and do Piano Black trim at the same time, i only want to take the door panel off ONCE

get stock tails, new wheels, better exhaust tips and some tint, and your car will be beautiful

tint has been done, those are not the wheels on it, i think next year I will get some 19x10 HRE competitions built for it

right now I have OZ's on it with only 235/40R18 and some H&R spacers

here is what the car looked like when I bought it


what is wrong with my exhaust tips? i had the exhaust moved in a bit so they don't stick out as much....

i also took that gay ass euro plate off the back too

I think that is a pretty stupid comment man. I am sure we can all agree that the taillights suck, but really THE EXHAUST TIPS? Come on dude, that's just a retarded thing to say. They look just fine. I actually kind of like the the wheels the way they are too. And tint isn't the biggest deal in the world. When it all comes down to it, looks are all about what you like, not everyone else.

A) the exhaust tips stick out too far... for my taste at least (and i have great taste, thanks)
B) window tinting may not be THE biggest deal, but it is an important aspect of the overall look of the car. His car, like my own, is black; therefore, I am more qualified to comment on whether or not his car might look more complete with tints than you are
C) i almost feel like buying him a new set of taillights myself, because those tails are degrading to all S4's

you were right about one thing though, in the end, different strokes for different folks

[Biggie_S2k]

Thats a beautiful work of art excluding the tails, but it's still a sick whip.

[dgrs4sd]

trust me you guys only have to look at it online! i can't stand it, you can't tell the lines of the car nearly as well A) because it's black and B) because the tail lights hide the lines because of a lack of contrast

but hey if you wanna buy me a set of tail lights I am open to that :) hahaha
