Interior Door Handles?

I am looking for some small door handles / catches to mount in my middy doors which have 'bear claw' catches so practically anything would do.

In the past I have seen lots of butt ugly things like the Marina, Allegro catches and I am looking for something more elegant and SMALL. The Punto is getting closer but I need to explore more options.

Any ideas guys?





Cheers,
Raz

They do the bear claw latches (that's where I bought mine) but they don't do any interior door handles unless I missed them.

Lots of surface mounted handles there but nothing which fits into a recess - the sort of thing that you find in a modern tin top drivers door, usually a little lever flush with the door card.


Thinking laterally, I suppose it could be done electrically using a central locking solenoid wired to a small button on the dash - which would have some bling appeal

The pic below is from a defender. Will probably be the same as an Allegro/Maxi or similar aged BL vehicle! Rescued attachment door_opening_lever.jpg
