My first door handle carrier replacement
It took three weekends and a rush-shipped, incorrect-color door handle, but I finally replaced my first door handle carrier successfully. I broke a million things and if the door panel stays on for longer than 24 hours it will be a miracle.
There is no sense of accomplishment. Only pain.

I’ve only had it for 3 days. I’d been foolishly putting off buying one for too long, and it bit me last week with a dead battery in a parking garage. It could be crap, but I will say that the model just below it in their lineup was a popular mechanics best pick. I went up to the next model because it has an inverter with a cigarette lighter plug, either standalone in the car, or the battery pack has a plug and can then put out 110.
It’s heavy and just big enough to make the built in flashlight sort of a silly afterthought. The only way to charge it, out of the box, is via USB C. I thought his was odd, but it works fine. Came with a 76% charge so I plugged it into my laptop dock (about 15 watts) and it was at 100% this am and had automatically turned off. They do offer a fast charging system.

The best boost pack is coming soon. It will use 18V batteries.

What did you do to / for your E53 today??
The cable from handle to DLA is a weak link. Inisde dla the motor will start to fail about 18 years in all at once or 15 if you have auto lock set.
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.
