Hope this helps!

 

good mod, and much needed lol. can u see the rod after u break the old ones off.I can't believe that they are just silconed on from the factory like that.

 

Yes, there is no need to pull the door panel for this mod.

BTW, these can be purchased at www.thehhrstore.com

 

I took about a quarter inch of rod off mine and when locked, mine sit flush with the door panel.

 

Many have done that, it all comes done to personal preference. That's why I usually recomend letting the new knob sit on the rod for a few day before gluing it in place. That way you know what works best for you.

I found that just switching them out was enough to stop the elbow jabbing. But everyone is different and that's great!

 

Mine sit a bit taller than the ones shown in the pics, but are much better than the stock ones.

I'm still debating whether to cut a bit off of the rod or not. If I do, I'll probably only take 1/8" off.

One of them is fairly tight and "chirps" when the doors unlock.

 

Just ordered mine!!! Looks good!! JR

 

Mine are the same way, much better than stock though still. I'll probably pick up a 2nd pair in case I can't pull them off without wrecking them when I go to cut my rod. If they come off cleanly then they can go to the back doors.

I actually did mine at stoplights on my way to the office
