Re: installing jetta rear handles on rocco

[the mad bastard <stoopid@idirect.com>]

it's real easy to do.  i can't give you step-by-step, cuz it's been
about a year since i did this mod to my beautiful 16V (RIP).  

	anyways, the little latch on the inside that trips the release
mechanism is shorter on the a2s than on the a1s.  simply swap the latch
from the a1 into the a2 (that plus maybe a couple of other things...)
and you're set.  it's not difficult at all.  i'm stoopid, and i did it
with absolutely no problems at all.  also, be careful about the springs
and other little pieces that may pop out at you.  take your time and be
careful, and in 20 minutes to an hour you should have a sweet de-locked
rocco.  *sigh*....i miss my roc....
