jim Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I bust my Jesus handle a week or two ago and keron has kindly sorted me out with a replacement (bottom) clip. I've just spent half an hour cursing at the stupid thing because I can't get it to fit into the recess. Has anyone replaced theirs before and if so is there a knack to it, or am I just being thick? It looks like I should fit the top end with the 'catch' in first, then the bottom end, and then fit the screw. I can't get the bottom end to go in. I don't want to use too much force for fear of busting it again. Anyone able to help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen G Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) I have took mine off and on and shouldn't be too hard to put back on. If i remember right the top mount is solid and the bottom one slides, it hard to explain but if you have the workshop manual it give a bit of a diagram of it on the body mechanical section on removing the front window. I was trying to put it up here for you to see but I can't get it on someone with a bit more computer knowledge will be able.

jim Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 Which translates as 'you're just being thick jim' I'll give it another go tomorrow while it's still light and before a smoke, might be easier. Cheers Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen G Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) I'm not saying that mate. Lol. I'm wondering mate that our friend across the water mightn't know what we mean but the Jesus handle.

JakeG Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Yea the bottom bit just slides off , I found that out after 15mins of leverage with a screwdriver and also poking myself in the head with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted March 23, 2012 Author Share Posted March 23, 2012 Oh Jesus, why do you hate me... I was well chuffed with myself, I got the clip in this evening while it was still light, turns out it just needed a bit of persuasion Sorted, just to slide the handle onto the clip...which just isn't happening. It needs to slide on from the bottom but I can't make the handle reach far enough down the A pillar to get it to engage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
