First of all we need to obtain the Fiat Marea rear door handles, once obtained we can now begin to fit them to the Fiat Bravo. Below are two examples of a Fiat Marea rear door handle and the Fiat Marea/Bravo front door handle.
FIAT MAREA/BRAVO FRONT DOOR HANDLE - Circled in the photograph is the rear mounting point for the bolt required to fit these handles to the front door.

FIAT MAREA REAR DOOR HANDLE – Circled in the photograph is the rear mounting point for the bolt required to fit these handles to the rear door. As you may have noticed, the position for the bolt is now in a 90 degree angle compared to the front door handle and is relatively much longer. Hence why they don’t fit.

If your Fiat Marea Front Door Handles are the same colour as your Bravo, you do not
need to disassemble the door handles. Follow Step 1. If you are repainting and/or
fitting Fiat Marea Rear Door Handles then go to Step 2.

Step 1 - Using the Fiat Marea Front Door Handles on your Fiat Bravo
The transition from Fiat Bravo door handles to Fiat Marea door handles is no difficult than doing a simple door handle change, like for like. No modifications are required but you do need to change the lock barrel. To swap lock barrels you need to remove the circular clip around the lock barrel of both handles and swap them over. Use a screw driver to prise it off, but be careful not to loose it. Swap the lock over and refit the circular clip. Tip. Use your key to help extract the lock barrel from the handle.

Step 2 – Using the Fiat Marea Rear Door Handles on your Fiat Bravo The next step is to dismantle these handles until your left with just the plastic casing. (When you dismantle a handle, don’t forget where everything goes) The actual key lock needs to have a pin and circular clip (as mentioned in step
1) removed in order to dismantle the door handle. Use the tip of a small screw driver to push the pin out, then with the help of some pliers from the other end pull it through.
