This video was super helpful cuz I just got a 02 bug eye and the person before me has everything apart. Seeing where the bolts go and what I need to put back in my mess of a car is gonna be so much nicer now thank you!!!
Thanks. I've been crazy busy working on our ice cream business. I post vids when I can, but sometimes things change & I just don't have time to keep up with the vids for long periods of time.
Hi, great video.. is it hard to swap the door locks when you have the handle off?? Thinking of swapping my handles for ones that are in better condition.. just wondered would the locks need to be changed too? Thanks
Hi, my driver side front and rear outer door handles are not in a good condition - the color coating on the inside of the handle is partially worn. My idea was, instead of having them repainted, replace them with second hand parts that are in good condition. Your video is really detailed and well edited - thanks for that! But still I'm really not sure if I can take everything apart without braking anything or messing sth. up. I'm especially concerned about diconnecting/connecting the lock/handle rods and the whole opening/locking mechanism. I've contacted a guy on ebay who's selling the second hand parts and asked about their condition. If he says the paint is undamaged I'll probably pull myself together and try replacing them. Hopefully it'll go well!
I would focus on getting that fixed first if possible. Do you know why it doesn’t go down? Electrical issue? Mechanical? Opening the door up like this would give access to investigate further.
Hey, mate. A fan from Australia - really great videos + editing. i wish all hawkeye videos were this detailed. You honestly don't have the following you deserve. Count me in as a new subscriber. Keen to know what you're planing to do with a few parts that you have removed/replaced is there a way to contact you to potentially buy?
pab1it0 Thanks. None of the parts are for sale, they went right back on the car after I vinyl wrapped it. And I’m in the US, so I’m not even sure they would be good for a non USDM car, but I wouldn’t want to deal with trying to ship anything to Australia anyway.

Thank you! I followed along and fixed my door handle! I have no experience with this stuff. Couldn't have done it without you :)
Just the video I needed, now I can remove my front passenger door handle and check why it is staying stuck open.
Thanks a bunch mate
my outside weather stripping is rock solid, hoping this will help me replace it!
Good video, each step well explained in detail and showed, also marked on the timeline
where have you been man? im so glad you're back.

This is AWESOME. I'm saving this for when I repaint my cart soon.
Your a freaking rockstar for sharing with the world!!
Can the bar you pull be separated from the rest of the handle ? Trying to wrap them
