If you're gonna make them flush then won't the OEMs work? Just cut the rod more.

 

I just bought some on ebay. They're OEM Mercedes knobs, but I don't see why they won't work on the HHR. The link to buy them is here:

I should be getting mine any day now and I'll let you all know how it turns out.

 

KDUGG, did you get those mercedes knobs yet? I'm realy intersted on how those worked out. Let us know please.

 

I haven't gotten them yet. They should be here any day now...I'm waiting with baited breath.

 

I bought some from SoCal last October. Guess I should install them sometimes...

 

Same here...I won't do the back doors though..I want to have a way to get out if the doors are locked and I lose all power!

Okay, they arrived today and installing them as received they stick up about 1/2" above the door. I drilled them out as far as possible without drilling through the top and I got them down to 1/4" above the door. Seems like I would have to cut the post the get them flush (something I was trying to avoid doing)

I'll post pics as soon as I can get my camera to transfer pictures

 

Yep you have to cut the post for them to sit flush.

 

Yep..there is a good how to somewhere here on that process
