Description

The Model S's retracting door handles, particularly the early revisions, are notorious for failing. If your Model S door handle stops retracting, you can attach this to it to use your door until it is fixed. Directions: 1. Use the tool to pry your Model S handle out from the vehicle. 2. Fit the big loop of the plastic prop over the top side of the handle. 3. Use the tool to pry the small loop of the prop beneath the bottom of the handle, and release it in place. It's easiest to do this by working edge to edge rather than all at once.
