The handle on the door itself, which you pull to close the door. Dorestyling car 1996 release

As some one mentioned on an earlier reply, would a 3D printed one be man enough for the job over the long term? 

On the PFL, it's an insert, with the strength of the handle in another moulding, so a 3D one might work for that, but I suspect the OP will have to design it themselves, as I very much doubt anyone has done an STL or other model file.

There is a person who has an STL file, but he wants for his money and not a little, you can buy a set of door cards with these "bananas" for this price. And I want to try to print these "bananas" myself.

Don't know what happened there, but the post was duplicated and inserted in the previous one!!

sorry to jump in with a possibly silly but obvious statenent ........
if this is a complete working car with long mot too and very cheap price why is nobody after it ? is i the road tax thats against it or have you not got it advertised anywhere slse (ebay for eg ?)
dontvthink the model would put anyone off .a cd has plenty features .
sorry here if im stating the obvious

Because no one wants to put the effort in. The end result is just not worth it.

That is correct.  I live locally to Robson and could take his Omega on.  Regrettably though, and I wish I could say something different, I just cannot afford to take another one on.  Mine already costs me a good percentage of my pensions, as they ARE expensive to keep going, and that is without the Road Tax and Insurance.  I also cannot "store" one that is not being used, having just one garage and no space that is not classed as "public", so attracting Road Tax. 

A great shame, but hey ho, such is life.

Having a bit of a stock take this morning, and was looking through the crank sensors, and all OE, no knock offs. But checking the part numbers,  they were all 90492006, but upon checking the plugs, there was a mix of square and oval plugs and all three pin. So could the square ones be used on my 3.2's? 

yeah probably but it was confusing me !
needing a battery ,door sol and a bit of bodywork isnt much effort and the end result is a useable car . we are supposed to be a group of omega enthusiasts after all . maybee everyone on here who wants an omega has got what they want so dont need one which is why i wondered if it was advertised anywhere else ?

Finally got around to looking at the Chrysler again.

And actually managed to fix the issue  .

Time to get all the covers and trays put back, then prepped for an MOT/sale 

Always a good feeling

Nice one!

My Omega is the same. Box is ticked but the damn thing never changes, so I have to either do it myself or wait 6 months for the time to be right again. 

IIRC the Omega had to be told NOT to use RDS to auto change the time .... 

My omega, a 2.5CDX, changed the time automatically. As does/did every Vauxhall I've ever owned.
