Melting rubber door handle interior inserts
Inner door panel handle inserts r getting dirty, soft and very sticky and wont clean up holding dirt.
Anyone have any preference for upgrades for this little trim piece , I have beige now the carbon fiber look seems nice also. Any brand vendor or brand preferences? Seems that they pop out without removing door panel with a trim tool/ correct? any advice or experience with this replacement item truely appreciated guess I need to do all 4 doors if changing to a the carbon fiber pattern is this a good choice or a mistake over the oem tan? silver would be choice # 3. Tan/Beige is just ok ? please advise proteus290 Austin Tx |

Just replaced mine with unbranded Chinese copies from Aliexpress. Kept the stock look though.
Unlike the original rubbery handles the new inserts are made of hard plastic. This is noticeable when compared side-by-side, but I couldn't feel any significant difference after having them installed. The inserts just pop out, and I found it to be easier to unclip them starting from the back of the armrest. |

I don't have it I'm afraid. I can't even find this order on my list of completed orders for some reason, as if they've rolled my account back - it's just empty now.
