Hi folks, my first post. I have purchased a new grab handle but can't seem to find a way to fit it. Is there a special tool, fixing kit etc.?
Heres hoping Sheba57

Well Maxstu, the handle was advertised and bought. It arrived....just the handle :-/
Thought it was odd, no fixing kit, no instructions
Any advice would be gratefully received.
BTW, there appears to be just a void behind the two holes

Re: fitting grab handle to driver side pillar
Handle is same for door so you bought a door handle
you need the inserts /packers for pillar they are specially shaped to fit the pillar.
there was a rumour they were different rhs to lhs but I'm not convinced.
I have a pic I can post later but not now as on my phone
surely you have a passenger side handle to look at
