I have always loved the simplicity of the GT door system. With some help from Ron I have begun the assembly process. I was fortunate enough to be able to borrow a riv nut installation tool from work. With one pull of the trigger the riv nut is installed and the tool then reverses it self to separate it from the door & new riv nut.

The functional part of the GT door handle system was very straight forward and quite simple IMO. However the cosmetic part of the conversion is a little more complicated or at least it is for me. Here are the bezels that go through the door trim panel for the door release pull strap. These are on there way to get power coated.
