      Hi Malc,
      If you have the original Berlinetta locks I think it is possible to adapt them (without too much work) for the SVA. By bending a 5mm rod into a semicircle and welding it onto the fastener, then drilling through the inner door skin via the latch aperture with a 5 mm drill you get the double action lock needed. I can send you some photos and more explicit details if you mail me at [email protected]
      Best wishes
      James

          Malc,

          I just turned the handles around for the test. Tester was happy with that about 2 years ago. Got used to them and never bothered change them back!!
