I use a steel cable ties wrapped twice for DHC repair.

Haven't had any break on my e70 yet. "looking forward to" figuring out that issue.
I actually had to replace the driver's dla because the previous owner decided to cheap out and put in a used one from an RHD car meaning that there was no way to lock/unlock with a physical key. At first I thought that I had a broken lock cylinder so decided to repair it with a repair kit, but lo and behold, when I removed the lock cylinder for the first time I realized there was nothing behind it in the door.
