yep think so

Thanks mate! you sure?
it says "OLDER SHAPE MEGANE'S ONLY USUALLY HAVE ROD FITMENT DOOR HANDLES" if that helps.
are thy easy to fit?

 

[Blue4Ever]

Well I've never seen any different versions of them to be honest, but it is a cable that attaches behind to open the door, as opposed to a rod. I'm 99% they'll fit though.

Yh mate they will fit no probz, fitted mine today i got them off of a new dynamique at the breakers and fitted them onto my 1.2 16v 2001.
Piece of P*ss to fit, all you need is a "Torx" tool (sixpointscrewdriver)
you unscrew the screw that is in your current plastic door handle, bring it out a little bit then there is a sort of a 1cm long piece of metal with a wire to the latch, this is in a slot of the handle, you simply push the little metal piece up, remove the handle and fit the new handles like the old ones were
Its Eaaaasy, once you have the handle loosened its self explanatory.

well the guy emailed me back with 5 mins to go and said
[FONT=Arial, Verdana]"No these are rod fitment & will only fit megane or rear doors of a 5 door clio"

guess i want cable ones, there will be some more along soon.

lucky i hadnt bid by then.

ok well that will be a nice little job for tomorrow .
can you think of anything else along the same lines that i could pick up at the same time?

 

[Matta_88]

welll its up to you mate what you after? i just found little bits to put in my car like newer sun visors etc make sure the breakers/salvage have the right cars though! and take your own tools (Torx especially)

the one on ebay is black plastic like you already have... just sprayed silver.

the proper ones are made from Aluminium

 

[Matta_88]

yuup he speaks the truth i got some aluminium ones from the breakers for next to nothing most of the handles renault make for the MK2 versions are universal even the megane's one fit just make sure it is one off of the front door else it will be rod fitment :O
