This kit:
https://914rubber.com/rs-inner-door-handle-kit Looking to see how far apart the holes are for the grab handle. My 914 I'm using Type 2 Door grab handles which look okay, but 914 Rubber ones look much nicer. Mine are about 6 1/4" mounting hole spacing. Anyone have a set laying around or installed they can measure for me? -Dan |

Thanks Blake, that's exactly what I was looking for. Scrunching the mounting 1 3/4" would probably make the handle look funny. Guess I could cut that off the 914Rubber handle? The plastic parts cover the material edges anyway?
Hmm, something for me to ponder. Would certainly look nicer/more finished than my pull handles. Thanks again! |

The metal is fairly stout and I couldn't bend it by hand, but I didn't want to bend a set from inventory. If you have the right tools you could trim and rebend if that works for your car. Thanks, Blake |

Had a different scenario than you do but my handles which I believe are the 914rubber, I anchored one end in a stock door blind nut position then welded a small metal tab on door framework with blind nut to locate the upper to make it work.
Might be an option?? |

I like that. King of stock, but not.

I like that placement as well.
Although I won't be moving my handle at this point. Don't want to poke any more holes in my new 914Rubber door panels. I tried to use one stock speadnut location. Makes me wonder what other combinations would work with the 914Rubber pull handle distance? Probably a few options. I'm going to buy a kit and shorten the handle. I really like the handle cover and end caps. Attached image(s) |
