Here are a couple different angles of the door handles. I used the Green Pad with Meguiar's D300 with my DA. Squeezed in there a little bit, but it left some scratches still deep underneath the handles where the DA couldn't reach, so I took some Auto Finesse Tripple on a MF hand applicator pad and went to work on the inside. All of the scratches came out completely!
