    Question Astra handles

    Here's the plan .... i wanna change my front door handles on a mk 3 Astra to 1's with no locks , HOWEVER i also want to smooth them into the door so i need handles that dont bulge out where the lock usually is. Will any other handles fit that are flat where the lock should be or will i have to smooth the 'lock bulge' into the door ??

    I'm about to do the same in the next week or so. What's the difference (if any) between rear Astra and rear Veccy handles?

    Thanks.
