thats why i posted in the 2nd gen section - not sure how would would do it on a 3rd gen

i assume it would be easier as you dont have to take the door card off to get to the handle ( saying that i have no idea ! )

Mind you the actual door key locks are supposed to light up when you lift the handle.

Yeah quite true, theres a link on a site somewhere for replacing the bulbs so it works. I guess I could do that and then move the light so it illuminates under the handles instead.

I\'ll have to dig out the FAQ on fixing it as I\'m sure it\'s very similar for the 2/3rd gens.
