Thanks for your comment. Yes, it's a very nice piece for sure! I've already had people who are not aware of his handles comment on them and are puzzled where I got them from. :-) Definitely one of the better recent additions to the car :-)

Thanks very much for the subscription 😀 He posted online after my video drew a bunch of attention again that he has taken a break from producing them. Making like 900 sets in 4 years. However he also mentioned that he will be restarting them again in a few weeks 😀

Great video, the best one I have seen explaining how to install these. I just got a '89 RS yesterday and am excited to get to work on it. My first new car was an '86 Berlinetta (starship Camaro) that I had to sell in '92 and have been looking to get another for a long time now. I subscribed.

I have an 85 Berlinetta and I won't let go of it. There were so few made and there are so very few left now. I'm fortunate that mine is almost 100% functional. Best of luck finding one, but beware of the rarity of parts.

I installed one but the handle still rattles and the clearance is a concern might go back to the original love the flush look.
@thecamarogarage
@thecamarogarage 3 ай бұрын
The flush handles uses the spring in your latch mechanism. GM relied entirely on a spring inside the handle to stop rattles. Once that spring either breaks or bends, the handles then began to give the common rattle issues. Because these flush handles have no springs, they rely on the spring that is actually found on the latch lock itself. If that spring is not in good, strong condition then the handles will definitely rattle. They should have included instructions indicating this in the kit. Or at least it was in mine. Clearance definately could be a concern with those with larger fingers. I have no issues with mine but I also had a strip of clear PPF installed under the handles to prevent finger nails from scratch the paint. Not for me but for those on the passenger side trying to open the door not used to the opening using your finger tips.

Nice video; I think i';ll be working to do this as mine are starting to get loose even with the set nuts tight. I need a video on that lock actuator relocation though.

Yeah I'm now being told this too. I purchased mine at least 2 years ago but only installed them recently. They are such a great product of his that they sold out fairly quickly. Hopefully he makes more soon.

Hi. It appears that he has taken a bit of a break from them (he's done nearly 1000 sets) but he posted that he's going to restart up in the next few weeks. I'll post when he's back up and running... this video looks like it's got a TON of interest heading his way again. 😆

I really want to support this guy and buy a set, but I can't get over the fact that they don't really fit the door handle relief area. The relief area is slightly curved, and it just looks wonky when installed. Also, I have big hands and I'm concerned about the little room to get my fingers in. I wish someone would make one that maybe isn't completely flush, but has more finger room and fits the relieved area batter.
@thecamarogarage
@thecamarogarage 6 ай бұрын
It might definitely be a bit more difficult with larger fingers. When the handles are placed into that handle relief area, there really is not much room for finger space to create a handle that is still flush but have a larger area for the fingers. I feel he did the correct design to match the limited space available in that area. When it's placed on the outside such as the factory ones, there is much more available space as apposed ti placed in the indentation. Overall I have zero issues with the design for myself. Extremely happy with the design, fit, and quality 😀

There is obvious quality in these. I could probably even get used to the finger clearance (especially the PPF trick to keep from scraping fingernails). It’s just that fitment at the top that has kept me from going ahead. Thanks for the in depth instructions though!

These are advertised for a 3rd gen camaro so I'm not sure if it would work on anything else. I'm almost leaning toward it working on 3rd gen firebird since many parts are interchangeable.
