I bought some "billit" window crank handles from Egay, and they are P.O.S.'s  :x  :x  :x

the window regulators I'm using are Volkswagen. they have a threaded center for a bolt.

does anyone know of somplace that makes decent handles?

or does anyone have a set lying around collecting dust?


Thanks

Why don't you make some of your own?  I had to drill a hole in the handles and put a screw into it anyway.  Make some "billet" out of aluminum bar stock.  I'll bet it will be cheaper!

Do a search for Claude's Buggies in Farmersville, California.

They're one of the premier VW supply outfits for rebuilds, specialty stuff and accessories.

Nice outfit to deal with, got a few of their parts in my roadsters.

(If Claude's Buggies doesn't work, search for VW stuff in Visalia, California.  It may be called CB engineering by now.  There is a VW outfit in Visalia proper, but the place you want is in Farmersville.)
