Door handles interchangeable?

Post by SIKMA »

I have a spare set of new GE door handles (outside not inside) I was wondering if they can be installed onto GJ-GN sigmas? The handles seem to fit into the door handle frames on the GJ-GN sigmas, and the mountings look pretty similar. Could anyone provide me with some insight? If they wont fit, I think I might aswell sell the set since I dont have a use for them.

They'll fit a later model wagon, but I think the later model sedans have plastic handles and I don't know if they're the same fit.

I dunno about that... yours look to have a surround to them that the older models don't have. Is there metal under those? If not, there'll be a big hole under the handle. :|

Im pretty sure theres metal under those handles, dunno for a fact though. But when I put the GE handles against the existing ones it looks like it might squeeze into the surrounds. Mountings seem to be pretty much the same, so it could still be possible :P
