Has anyone replaced the rear upper tailgate release handle on their D3.
Mine has rotted away so was looking on flea bay for a replacement. Anyone replaced theirs or has a spare for sale.

Thanks for the info. I’ve been looking on flea bay and the part is only £15. Do you know how much the genuine part is and do you have a part number also. I might even replace the actuator also

Imho, it is what you pay for.... 2 x 15 gbp + added shipping i had to pay would have paid almost a genuine one...
Quick search gives me this..

But I also hear forum members writing about a RRS version...
I do not have that part number at hand at this moment..
Somebody will turn up with it Best regards
