I had an FD door handle apart once and it's pretty simple (take backing off from the interior side of the handle and undo the screws). Id try to take it apart yourself and see what is damaged before going any further. Maybe somebody on here has parts? Feel your pain though dude....theives blow.

I am sure that somebody on here would be glad to hook you up with a door handle.

Fritz Flynn (on www.rx7club.com) im sure has a extra handle that he'll give you the best price used you can find. PM him over on that forum. the FD door handle is a pain in the *** because all it is is 2 plastic holder clip type things that hold both metal rods that connect to the actual opener and the lock mech.

Sorry to hear what happened, the handle is pretty simple. Just watch those plastic clips, if they break then you'll have problems.

RXecret7, Sorry to hear it.



Flynn is definitely OK, but depending on the cost and what your deductible is, you might want see if you can just get a new one.

Sorry about the **** that happened. Peeps that have no life, have so soul!

Im assuming this is the drivers side? If not by chance, i have a passenger side handle for sale. if it is a drivers sid JT-Imports can get you one brand new for cheaper then the dealer.
