Hi folks,

On my winter list is to look at adding a stock handle like the one on our passenger door, and like the one on the passenger side used to help get into the van. I’m wondering if mounting one on the B pillar inside the van sort of near the seatbelt, could aid in getting in and out of the van.

I was thinking something angled like is done on the Passenger side.

I happen to have a couple sets of the angles handy.

If someone has already done this and determined height and position for best use getting in and out of the van, I’d like some ideas and thoughts.

As we are getting older, and so are our friends, this could be useful for the next couple decades of van fun.

Eric Caron
