Distinctive,individual,and very nice....I really like what you've done with that
On another note,I spoke to HAWKE and they are out of stock of the door handles at the moment,but he was going to speak to the boss,and see what they could do about a GB from a different supplier "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool,than to speak out and remove all doubt" ?.....what rubbish...

Are the factory black pack handles sprayed Santorini Black, or Narvik Black like all the other "black" bits?
Edited: to say I've now re-read the 14MY product brief, and confirmed standard black design pack handles are indeed Narvik black.
Interestingly, and nothing to do with handles(!), wheel centre badges changed at 14MY to either silver/dark green (silver wheels) or black/dark green for black pack cars....

Really impressed with your disco.
Too late to change mine from corrisMy15 disco 4 commercial on order
My14 ranger soon to go
My11 disco 4XS for swmbo

Euan, I received a set of handles from Hawke yesterday, I tweeted them to see when they would be back in stock and was asked to call them. They have lots in stock but the buttons don't all fit quite right so they withdrew them from sale. He sent me a set at a cheaper price as I said I'd see what I could do, 2 of the buttons fitted perfectly, the other 2 I shaved the tiniest amounts of white plastic off opposite corners of the back of the button and they fitted straight in. They look perfect and I'm happy
If you want his number I'll PM you I'm sure he'd be happy to shift more sets on the understanding some minor fettling might be required
