Plastic missing on my door pulls. Suggestions? Don't know what color or finish or how attached.

Roland, I tried splitting plastic tubing in half, sometimes it worked sometimes it didn't. I found the full tubing was too thick for me so I tried splitting it in half. See my youtube video on it below.

rowand,

The plastic tubing on my '47 Custom was also in bad shape and most of it was missing on the pulls, so I went to the local pet store and bought some aquarium tubing to fix it. The passenger side wasn't too bad so I started with the driver's door -- the last time I was making a hard turn and cut the stuffings out of my knuckle in the process, so I knew it was time. Easy! Once I got the hang of it the job went extremely quickly, so I ended up doing the three other doors that afternoon. Very pleased with the results too, and they look so much better now. As I was wrapping the line I kept a good tension on it so that the tubing would flatten out and look stock in its appearance, then stuck each end under the bracket and tightened the screw to lock it into place. Screwed the door frame panel back into the door and each one has stayed put since I did them last summer.
