Guys,
Dave just made a door handle for the RV10. It fits the existing RV10 handle assembly perfect. Like the other RV canopy handles he makes, it mounts with just 2 set screws. No need to put the large screw in the front.
We put this on tonight to check the fit. I already had the existing holes drilled for Vans handle. We slid the new handle on, torqued both set screws, removed the handle, center punched were the set screws made marks, and put the handle back on. The center punch makes little divots were the set screws go and this handle does not rotate. I tried pretty hard...but it doesn't rotate. Good to go.
Dave is making an aluminum insert that replaces Van's plastic cap. He says it will be a press fit. Just tap it in. I'll post a pic when I get it.
If you are interested in these handles, you can call Dave at 302-437-6087 or email him at his new email address.. dczachorowski(at)comcast.net
Check out the pics below...

Zack,
Those look great! Have you given any thought to a lock? I know its been discussed before, and we've seen some nice samples from others, but nobody has delivered yet. You and Dave are a viable production source with some great products.

Jon,
I asked Dave to design a lock. He's thinking about it but doesn't have anything yet. He is concentrating on the inside door handle. We don't like the square tubing that Vans has and the minimum space for your hand between the handle and door.
I know he has ordered some 4130 tubing and will make a billet handle for the inside out of aluminum. Can't wait to see what he comes up with.
