    Think of all the great uses that handlee will have in the future as well:

    You can hang the transmission fluid bottle from there when you're servicing your tranny.

    If you're on a long road trip, you can hang your laundry from there to dry.

    You could integrate a can holder so you don't spill your beer inside the VX.


    The possibilities are endless.

    Perhaps we are being quick to judge. Let us see a "zoomed out" picture so we can be more comfortable judging you.

    Heck....maybe the next step is curtains around the windows instead of tinting......maybe a white picket fence around the bottom......

    I kid...I kid....

    Keep thinking outside the box. I know that's what EVERYONE here does and we have had some real great ideas surface because of it.
    Man that's what I like to hear, think of all the possibilities. However, one of the upsides is since these pulls are universal I can switch to antique brass, gold or whatever. Hum, cup holder, tranny fluid....priceless. Will try to post pics from farther away today. Everytime I try to post pics I have to delete others cause I get the over the attachment notice. Seems like I can only do about 3-4 pics before I have to delete-em to do 3-4 new ones.
    So I said to myself, I said "Handee"
    and this voice came back and said..
    "He's not in, may we take a message?"

    You should scale the pictures down so they aren't 324mb a piece

    That would just be one MORE thing to rattle and squeak.

    Isn't that a limitation that's removed for site supporters? PRESSURE, PRESSURE, PRESSURE...

    J/k, just an FYI in case you eventually get sick of doing tha - although with the member status tags removed maybe you already are and I'm way off base. If so, sorry!

    I'll vouch for Handee as being MORE than just an annual $20 site supporter...
    He goes WAY above & beyond that...

    My guess is that his gallery limitations are an oversight that will be corrected when the site upgrade is complete...

    I feel so badly about the Somebeach thread, I'm not going to carry this any farther. I was just putting everyone on, as to this door handle mod. I figured everyone would be saying "is he friggin crazy?" to drill a VX door handle like that. I took bad pics on purpose, some of my VX door handle (which is unscathed), and drilled a cash for clunker handle that's headed for the crusher. The Somebeach thread has made me sick to my stomach.. I apologize to everyone for attempting to have a little fun with a goofy mod.

    This is no different than a lot of the mindless drivel I post.

    Our new mission will be to bring Handee out of his deep blue funk.

    Naaaa, it was funny. I kinda thought it was a joke because of the way you posted the pics. I say, good one!
