Door handles installed, carpet out

For years I’ve been running Little Red with the door handles removed since the set screws kept coming undone, I’ve now installed them with threadlocker so that should no longer be a problem.

I also removed the old custom cut carpet remnant. It was absorbing that “old truck” smell, and I think the thickness of the carpet has been preventing the pedals from fully depressing resulting in less throttle range, reduced max braking force, and most importantly preventing the clutch from fully engaging (it’s always had a little gear grind every shift since I’ve had it).
Luckily the rubber floor mat was underneath and still in usable condition.
