Black Chrome Handles for CU2

Hi All,

I've been looking around and dont see any differences between the handles on CU2 and previous models.

Are they different externally or internally?

I want to get the black chrome ones from the 2007 Limited Edition sport and put them on my gray 2009.

Is there any issues with this, from experience? Rung up the guy at the parts line at my Brisbane dealer and he wants VIN to say exactly how much and if he can get them.

Either way he reckons the most expensive door handles for a 2007 model is $730. He doesn't know if (to quote) they're blue, pink or green. Not a very helpful bloke.

Anyone know how much or details to get hold of them? If they're the same, ie they fit, I want them.

PM if you got them to sell.

Black chrome looks sick, but the door handles to me look like a different shape between cu2 and cl9. The CU2 are chunkier. Are you sure they will fit? It would look great if it can be done though.

Haven't measued the CU2 against the CL's. Parked next to them and didn't notice the difference in size. I think they'd look good.

Can anyone confirm if there is a difference in size?
