Drivers door chrome end cover

Postby Gibzy » Tue Feb 16, 2010 2:21 pm

Just rang the stealers in Cardiff, and neededa price for the drivers end cap (chrome peeled off of mine) for a 04 plate 3 door megane. They then told me that there is no over onn the drivers side and that the whole handle assembly would cost £54.32..... is this true? if it is, i need to know if anyone is willing to sell me one, as i cant justify paying the stealers that amount of money.

Also just to throw it into the mix the reno sport door badges are £53.00 each .... what a joke

I would ask them the price again, I got mine from Renault Newtownards for £18 each. The phase 2 type (brighter chrome)

Im sure i still have the recipt.

Also no renault do not sell a seperate cap for any door other than the passangers. I would try a breakers.

The end caps come off on all the doors apart from the front passengers side as its just a clip on cover.

To remove the end cap on the drivers door it quite easy , open the door and on the side at the handle's level there is a rubber bung, remove that and if you look inside the hole you will see a lever just make a hook and give it a pull towards you from the bottom. The end cap will now pull out make sure you push the lever back to lock it back in place when finished.
