Do the fiftysixdeluxe winders come with the screws? Not shown in the picture and my current winders don't have them. Anyone know?

Cool! Ta! I've had the empi chrome handles and I'm totally fed up with them coming loose every five minutes! Gonna give these ones a try.

Thanks!

Hi all,

I was wondering what aftermarket or even og window winders are you all using please? I ask as I spent over £30 quid on a 'solid' billet chrome pair and having had them on for say 4 month they've broken already! The teeth have all shredded and they've fallen off!! I'm not a fan of the chrome ones with holes in personally so what's the alternatives?
Cheers!!

I use the ones, with which the vehicle was factory-fitted, back in August or September 1972, with no problems to date!

I have broken so many types of winder but these seem to be holding up very well!

Dude, where did you get your steering wheel? was it from the same place as the winders?

I plan to get both from them but is the steering wheel any good? and i was going to get the spacer too

Although polished chrome and stainless steel are quite attractive, they can lead to unconfortable & hazardous glare problems, as a consequence of reflected sunlight or headlamps, as I discovered with the steering-wheel spokes and windscreen wipers, of my Triumph Toledo/Dolomite HL hybrid saloon.

I've now been through 4 handles since Feb last year (Cheap GSF ones, I guess you get what you pay for).

Strangely it only seems to be the drivers side one that goes and I'm wondering whether there is a problem with the winder mechanism. It definitely feels tougher to wind the driver side than the passenger side window.

I'm going to have to replace the window winder again but wanted to get some opinions as to whether I might have an issue first.

Any thoughts?

Have you tried lubricating the winder mechanism?

 

[hamster]

Not yet, the 4th handle broke on the way to work this morning and I don't have any lubricant handy :lol:

I'll give it a go, but can anyone recommend some hard wearing handles?

Mine won't break! :lol: :lol:
