Note: The last four digits of the part numbers are the numeral 9 followed by the color code.

end-cap?

I'm a little unclear. Is the second photo of the end-cap with IR hole? ( I read a post somewhere that a set of handles purchased didn't have the IR hole (on passenger side?)).

I got a set from Steve for my C320 coupe. The passenger side end piece doesn't have the IR hole. Went to the dealer and the only part number the part guy saw was for the passenger end piece with the IR receiver. I don't know if you can just order the Passenger side end piece (with IR hole) without the receiver. gmabm, do you have the part number?

C320
I had my handles on my C240 painted at my dealer, since here in Canada the handles on a C240 Classic came in black, the result was great just as if they were painted at the factory at a fraction of the price.

You are right about it, the passenger side does not have key hole and IR hole.

This cap is for use on a Right-Hand-Drive car.

So, is it possible order the colored door handles and two driver's end-caps (one LHD and one RHD)?? Are these separat parts?

I think you can, but why would like such a configuration anyway?

Steve,

Can you find the passenger IR end piece? I got the handles from you and installed, they look great! Thanks.
