Paul L - for the door mods i am using a standard mini handle and it has a bullet type piece of plastic that pokes out when the handle button is pressed. This hits the 41mm x 35mm 'strike' plate that you see I have bolted on to the door working on the pictures in my previous post.
As you can see I had to open up the hole a little bigger to be able to get access to secure the strike plate, I did all this from the outside of the door without taking any of the interior trim off.
So the strike plate pushes inwards and opens the door.
The mini handle is attached to the new door skin that covers the outer part of the door and just bolts on like a veneer piece.
No idea about other door handles, as only using Mini ones, sorry.
I hope this all makes sense.
It's gonna be a nice day again today so will continue efforts, my todo list on this build in much smaller now and fits on one page in my note book. Yay!
