Gergo,
The fitting of these escutcheons is critically dependent on how thin and how
flexible the door panel material might be. I have had no problem fitting
original or reproduction handles and escutcheons to customers cars. The door
panel must be pushed well in to allow the escutcheon to compress and the
tapered end of the lock pin to be started.

Subject: [Healeys] Door escutcheon fiitng
Dear Fiends,
After two and a half hours, I slowly give up and ask: is there any trick of
fitting the door escutcheon plate under the door handle on a BN4? Please
dont tell me that there is no makeiteasy trick! Is the AH4H sold plate 100%
same as the original (I have no originals)? I simply cannot retract it
enough to fitt the door handle.
Gergo
