nealy, Can you still unlock the door with a key by lifting up the handle? or is it remote only?

It's remote only, I tried sticking the key in before I switched the handle, but it wouldn't go. I also tried to see if I could switch just the handle out (instead of the whole piece that doesnt have the hole on it), but I couldn't figure out how to do it.

thats probably best... if you ever wanted to switch back, that would certainly make that easier.

... if only I had keyless entry, I would be joining you on this mod now.

It is one of those mods that people will know it looks cleaner, but no one will know why.
I love the subtle details.
It looks very clean.... Might just have to add this to the list of mods.

The install was easy, the main issues were pulling the old handle off and taking the bar that connects from the handle to the locking mechinism off.
