[QUOTE="gendong, post: 750944, member: 22402"] Bro, if your car is still under warranty, go back to the SC n get them replaced under warranty. Here are some excerpts from F10 Crew FB page: For those out of warranty, the options available are: 1. Replace the door handle (which unprobably hv bought) 2. Rewrap the door handle Option 1 - Replacement of interior door handle Only the inside half of the interior door handle needs replacing. It is available for sale separately. A new replacement door handle is sold at: - SC - RM430/handle. - Parts Stockist - RM375/handle (parts only) The problem will recur after some time. Option 2 - Rewrap the door handle with PVC The door card is removed and then the door handle is removed from the door card. The rubber layer of the door handle is completely removed and the handle is cleaned. It is then wrapped in PVC that has a similar texture as the door card leather. PVC is used instead PU and leather because PU and leather are too thick. Leather is also significantly more expensive. The PVC last longer than the original soft touch rubber and can easily and cost effectively be replaced in future. The process takes 1/2 a day. Although any reputable car interior shop can do the wrap, it is important that you go to one who has had experience dismantling the door card. Some places that are able to rewrap: 1. Preferred Wheel in Glenmarie. 2. Central Car Cushion in Kepong. 3. Yap Cushion in Taman Mayang. Else, you can DIY it too. Plenty of tutorials on Youtube that can guide you. [/QUOTE]
