Much better than the BA way of using a flat screwdriver on the top side.

I wouldnt have thought you needed a soldiering iron to change them.I wouldnt mind just getting the silver inserts just to break up the colour on the doors a bit. Any idea where I could get them Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/30704-bf-grab-handles/#findComment-470956 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea where I could get them←They will not fit the BA on the front doors, as the insert is a different shape to the BF.You will see on the photos that they go up over the top, which the BA does not.Don't think you can modify the BA handles to fit BF inserts.
