What I did on a mates fg is use pointy nose pliers to snap off the melted bits holding the handle on.Then to reattach the new handle, drilled and used pan head screws in the remains of the plastic studs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, could have bought a genuine ford handle for $62 ! didn't come with any screws but Edited 17/03/20 09:39 PM by bloodycrashboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
