The febiPLUS range can often exclusively offer articles to the market that are otherwise only available from Original Equipment and the vehicle manufacturers. febi makes these parts available in high quality, at economical prices and with excellent availability from local motor factor stockists. 

 
The parts are Ford Transit (06) 2006 – 2014, where the door handles have a high failure rate. The parts are febi 179373 LH and febi 179375 RH. 

The Transit, is a high use light commercial vehicle which experiences lots of wear and tear. The interior door handle is one part of the door lock assembly mechanism which is subject to frequent operation. The small force when the handle is pulled is amplified by a leverage principle to ensure that the lever does not feel too heavy when operating the door lock.
 
The failure of the interior door handle occurs at the end of the lever where the cable from the door latch connects. Over time, the material becomes brittle due to the environmental and physical conditions it operates in. If the door latch fails - or any of the components in the door lock mechanism become worn or sticky - excessive force may be used to try and overcome the resistance felt in the lock assembly when operating the interior door handle.
 
febiPLUS articles 179373 and 179375 are the perfect, OE-matching replacement part to ensure the reliability and efficiency of the interior door handle of this popular light commercial vehicle. 

These articles are available from febi stockists nationwide.
