Opening the rear door from the inside?!?
So my caddy is set up as a camper and it it getting really annoying having to go round the side to open the rear doors. I vaguely remember seeing a kit somewhere that was basically a retro fitted internal handle. Does anyone know where I can get one from because I don’t seem to be able to find anything about them.

@madmax245 not sure if that link worked if not, it's in the how section of the forum.

Is there an equivalent available for the Tailgate rear door Caddy?
My Maxi sometimes doubles up as a camper - but getting out via the rear door would be so much easier than via the sliding door.

A mate have the tailgate door on his camper caddy, he just wired up a string from the standard mechanism, pulling straight back. Nothing fancy, so it should not be too hard, but it is not pretty.

Just went to the dealer up here in Sandviken and the whole Kit was Sek 500 when using the list of parts listed. (500 sek eq GBP 42.-)
Thanks!

Cheaper option is to drill a hole in the ply lining big enough to get your thumb through just above the lever in the lock mechanism. Works a treat

Fitted my rear handle yesterday, took literally no more than 2 minutes to fit. Hardest bit was cutting the ply in the right place and fitting the trim to make it look nice.
