Thinking about it just makes me sad, upset, and disappointed.

    In the recently acquired files of Chris Bradley, Head of the Experimental Workshop at the factory, there are some drawings showing a different method of attaching the escutcheon that were being considered that would not require any re-design of the part and associated tooling expense.

    Re-Install

    I have an existing (original) RH Escutcheon that I need to put back into the door. The PO had removed it to work on unlocking a stuck door. Is there a trick to putting these back in? I tried lifting the inside door release and squeezing it in, but it will break if I push any harder. Any tips would be welcomed!

    I wonder if a part like this could be reproduced using the 3D printing technology?

    i don't think so. Building this out of layers will be tricky as best.

    You can't buy happiness, but you can buy a DeLorean and that's sort of the same thing....
