Peter:
My '70 TR6 had original springs in both the door and window
handles. This kept constant preasure on the black plastic cap which
fits between the handle and the trim pannel, thus maintaining
a tight fit/seal of the trm and the handle.

BTW: Had a fantastic time at the Eastern Regional VTR meet in
Camp Hill, PA this past weekend. The Central PA Triumph Club,
which I am a member, did an outstanding job. Pleanty of
activities, great company, fantastic cars, and the weather
couldn't have been better.
