Update: I added a version of the side plates with provisions for a strap
These handles (which I printed in PETG) Attach to the radio by holding the ridge around the end plates. You don't need to take any screws out of your radio to install this as the radio is sandwiched (or sammitch'd, I've heard it both ways) between the plates. the top and bottom rail are set up for thread inserts, but I just ended up using the screws in the plastic.
There are provisions for heat set inserts, I didn't need them after I printed it the long screws engaged just fine, depending on your printer your results may vary.
12 M3x25 cap screws with or without M3 Heat set inserts.
You may be able to use shorter ones with the Heat set inserts.
Have a great day and 73
PS if yo find this useful feel free to buy me a cup of joe
