Great quality, and now with two ways to install:1. Use the hardware shown by mounting the two axles through the mounting plates, then install the completed handle onto the case using the 4 rivets...or... 2. Use your pre-exisiting case hardware and simply install the raw handle using the two axles. This keeps your case original. (Your original case hardware should be similar in appearance to that shown here, in order for the axles to fit correctly. These are "spinning" axles as oppose to being the non-spinning or "fixed' type). If you need help...send me a pic of your case!Istructions are included. I also have a youtube video to help with axle pin installation.Shop Talk - to install the axles, slide the axle through the handle and case hardware so that the open end of the axle points to the inside of the handle. Then, use a small hammer to "ball pien" the open axle end, creating a burr which locks the axle and handle in place. This is the same process used at the factory and it will have a factory appearance. Works great! (TIP: place a counter-weight or another hammer against the opposite end of the axle that you are tapping...this will make your hammer taps more meaningful).* A standard size rivet is included. If you know the specific length rivet you need you should email that BEFORE paying. If you need a different size rivet AFTER you receive the handle they can be provided at an additional charge which covers our cost....we want to help you get your case back on the road!Shipping to USA FIRST CLASS 5.50 Ebay international shipping is available Handle with Hardware plates with axles....handle arrives to you unassembled so you can install as you need.....
