Has anybody tried to put one of the grab handles (aka handles) from the roof up front for the passenger? Maybe its just how I drive, but everybody always reaches for one. I'm not sure how they're bolted on, so it might be impossible. Let me know what yall think.

i just got back from the junkyard, and there are already holes up front. There are two things in the way though:
The holes are about in line with the top of the plastic trim that goes over the door. I would assume it wouldn't be too much trouble carefully cutting the plastic piece to make them fit. I believe the only problem with that would be getting that stupid piece off.
The other thing in the way is the metal rectangular piece that holds the trim, that the trim 'pops' into. It's about two inches long or so. It's only the corner of the piece in the way, so the corner could probably be cut off, or the whole piece even, since there are other points holding it on.
The one thing I'm not sure about is how the automatic seatbelts work. If the moving parts stay within the visible metal track, then it shouldn't be in the way at all.
input is appreciated thanksClubProtege

Do you have the automatic seatbelts??? When you took it off, was the plastic trim piece molded around it? Or are there holes in the trim piece?
that's exactly why... cus i'm just sick of people grabbing on to the seatbelt..it gets on my nerves. other than that, ive just had a ton of people reach for it, and it'd just give them something to hold on to when I drive like I do.ClubProtege

I should do this too. People don't know what to grab, so I have to tell em the door pull. Usually it's too late and they freggin put thier hands on my tire-shined dash, then complain when they have tire shine on thier hands...
