Rear door pull replacement
The door pull (leathery covered piece between the two silver ends) on one of the rear doors has got damaged (don't ask!). Is this replaceable by itself without a whole new door card?
If so, does anyone know if the door card has to come off to remove it and fit another? Found various videos on getting the door card off, but was hoping that I can replace it without taking it off .
Grateful for any info/help on this
Merry Christmas
Cheers

Post a photo of the offending item and it will make it easier to answer ! The plastic door pull covers are replaceable, but most of the rest of the arm rest is an integral part of the door card (it may be possible to replace parts ut you would still have to remove the card). I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!

Thank you.
It's this dark pull handle on the drivers side rear door I need to replace. (Or perhaps may get away with just the covering if that is possible)

Thank you. Was worried that may be the case, but was hoping someone may have thoughts on it. I'm going to take the silver brackets off and see if the pull handle can be eased out of the two plastic ends somehow. That way I can buy any colour door card in any condition to get a decent handle. I Can't find any rear door cards in my biege colour, only black, unfortunately.

Yes, thanks, good idea. Will do. Unfortunately it's been "chewed" which has roughed up the inner hard plastic too.
What a pain!Gary

If you can get it off the rub it down and use Plastidip…I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!

in that case get one of ebey remove better condition handles and re-plastic-weld it onto you card as it seems like light colour ones are hard to find
