Hi Eric.
Yes. A standard VW grab handle mounted on the metal edge below the slider window, angled slightly inward (away from window) positioned with the center of the handle just about centered on the seal between the rearmost window and the forward window in the assembly.
I might have mounted it slightly more rearward if I was to do it. Diane likes it, so it may happen.

Hi folks,
I tried to get my wife to describe the picture.
She could not read the ruler. She counted 9 lines from door edge. Is this 9 inches?
And handle on top edge by window seal so likely slightly bent inward .
Can someone confirm?
Thanks,
