Subject:      Early vanagon slider handle rear interior location
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8


Hi folks, 


If you have a early vanagon with the extra interior slider handle, I need your info.


My 84 only has the one handle.  I’d love to add the second interior handle.  But, feeling around I can’t find a place to bolt it in. 


        My 84 has a replacement slider door panel.  On the back are tactile places to drill out for the door clip.  They all match up.  And, I think there is one for the handle.  But I don’t feel anything on the 84 for a bold to go in.  Not even a hole.  What is there is a sort of plastic feeling rectangle with a screw on either side.  The screws don’t want to turn out something inside just spins.


So, what is the usual way the extra handle attaches?  I have an extra handle and just want to bolt it on if possible. 


Any tips are greatly appreciated.
