Most of the other videos and guides available show having to remove far more plastic welds than the 3 you have so you obviously have a better method; my guess is they missed the internal clip that you lever out of the way. Well done for making such an informative video. My handle hasn’t completely broken yet but I’m sure it will and this guide will be a great help. Thank you
@ update… mine broke 2days ago on the passenger side. I’ll be repairing using the same method as you but are you able to provide a link for the part you used. No problem if not. Thanks.
Enterijer je po kvalitetu tri koraka u nazad u odnosu na 147. Ove ručice su na 147 od metala. Na suvozačkoj mi se ogulila ova metalna folija, pa sam je lepio, ali je opet počela da se guli. Vidi se da su štedeli na svakom koraku. Međutim, ni kod konkurencije nije ništa bolje.
Hi there, hello. Can you make a tutorial (if you have already - can you link it here) on how to replace front and back hood emblems on Alfa GT as well the one on steering wheel. I just bought black&white version of emblems and I don't want to screw or damage anything while replacing them. Živio brate
@ thanks man, I’ll try either of those. I was driving yesterday and my door wouldn’t open, so I pulled a little harder and my whole handle snapped off. Now I have to open my window and open from the outside 😭. Been watching ur videos for a while, gonna use your video to install my CarPlay in a few days as well. Love the channel, keep it up. 👍
I did it at home, absolutely terrible job, that was the moment I realized that the interior design in this car was a piece of crap (I don't mean the looks). For example, the pocket in these doors could easily be much larger, but it is not. Great video as always.
hey do you remember by any chance what length screws you made? I made that replacement but i feel like the handle was and will be loose by itself if i just melt down the pins
Hey, love your videos, watched many of them quite a few times. Keep it up! Luckily i don't have to replace the door handles, they're in a good shape, but who knows how long the springs hold out. One question if OK, do you have any video (or plan to make) regarding rear screen sprinkler/washer nozzle access? I just noticed today that mine is leaking, probably near the sprinkler and got some washer dripping inside in the middle. Tried to search the topic, but haven't found anything (i guess it might be an unusual problem so might not get many views but could be useful)
@arcgarage Whoa thanks man, i dont know how i skiped this! I couldn't also find any support link in description so sent this YT thanks. Hope YT doesnt take too much cut on it
DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS LIGHTLY Did this job on my own and the section around 4:50 is very hard to do. I ended up cutting the tab off but still had to struggle to angle the handle in. Plastic welding is a pain!
Shitty door handles, I needed to replace the passenger side one on my Giulietta. Everything is made to be pleasant to eyes, but not well made at all. At the moment I have a 22 year old Alfa Romeo 156 and, despite the age, everything is still in its place and working.
@@jumpersdevice1871 Alfa Giulia belongs to an higher market placement, so it’s way better built and refined. It’s still an Alfa Romeo, so do not expect to compare it to an Audi A4, for instance.
Thank you for this wonderful guide. After almost a year of hesitation, I just finished this job. Couldn't have done it without you!
Glad to hear that man, cheers

Slazem se u potpunosti, na GT i na 147ici je puno bolji

Nice job. Well done.
I used hot glue instead of screws
Thanks, how is it holding?
@@arcgarage About a half year later still like factory plastic weldings.
No difference yet. Time will tell
@@mesasartworks Good to know
My door handle is working perfectly except its peeling. Can i only replace the handle without having to drill out the whole mechanism?
Sadly no, you have to remove it, even to replace just the handle itself. You can't remove the pin which holds it in place unless it is out
So you can change only the handle and not the entire mechanism? But you atill need to remove everything like in the video?@@arcgarage
@@zola9535 Yes
Hi, are there any alternatives to grinding the melted plastic tabs as I don’t have the tools for that.
Hi, you can try melting them with a torch lighter, you can drill them out, etc.
@ thanks man, I’ll try either of those. I was driving yesterday and my door wouldn’t open, so I pulled a little harder and my whole handle snapped off. Now I have to open my window and open from the outside 😭. Been watching ur videos for a while, gonna use your video to install my CarPlay in a few days as well. Love the channel, keep it up. 👍

Thanks, yes that is the downfall of this car, the poor interior quality
That’s the exact issue I had too 😂
Hi could you tell me what size screws I need to replace cause I need to fix ?
It is not exact measure, you have to add washers anyway
@arcgarage ok thanks but are they 5mm screws the ones you used or 5.5mm ?
Hi thanks for the video, and could you please let me know where can i order the handle? any online website? thanks!!!
Welcome, anywhere online, they are all the same

Hi, don't remember
@@arcgarageno worries some visuals helped already a ton

Thank you very much for support man, check out the recent video on boot spoiler removal, you can see the access hose there, hope it helps

@@doxi_ Thank you very much man
Odlican video! Svaka cast!
Btw da li znaš da mi kažeš gde se nalazi pcv ventil na alfi 147 1.6ts?
Moze li se ubaciti cijeli trim sa navigacijom od redizajn modela na obicne modele prve generacije?
Mogao bi ali ima prepravki

It is a bit tricky, but with a little persuasion it comes out
What would be a temporary method to open the door from inside?
Put a zip tie over the cable
Open the window and open from outside
Another useful video by your side😃. In this i love too the music. Where you buy spares online, my friend? Any single place?. As always, thank you !!!
Thank you very much my friend. I look to buy spares primarily locally, but when I buy them online I don't really have a good source
What size washers and screws did you use?
Not sure about washers, I would have to measure them, the screw thickness is 5.5mm

Poor quality plastics man. Love the car, but that is a major flaw
do you guys know if the Giulia is any better?

Just removed interior panel, time to handle the handle now 😅 i feel like this will be a poor job 😂
Just have patience, you'll do good
@@arcgarage ok I managed to do this, it's not pretty but will do. Thanks for the tutorial!
