    I have one grab handle totally missing (as in holes in the headliner) and one that has broken brackets that I think I can fix. I've been looking for the past year without luck. Anybody know where I can source one? This one is black, but any color is ok. I can paint it to match. Thanks, -Reid

    As many of you know, I am a product development engineer with a lot of experience in prototyping.
    I offer a number of NLA parts, one example is toggles for Mondial roof latch assembly's.
    I recently learned that the grab handles are no longer available. A fellow F_Chatter sent me his and I have identified design improvements that would make replacement parts more robust.
    Currently, I am in the process of determing prototype tooling cost and availability.
    How much interest is there in these handles?
    PM me if you need them mor if you are interested.
    Thanks

    I have a broken one that I repaired using Gorilla glue. It looks fine but I do not trust its strength. Actually, I don't let anyone touch any of the grab handles. I wouldn't mind picking up one or two just ot have around.
