New door latches?
Does anyone know where to get new door latches? Not the handles, the actual latch mechanisms themselves. Mine are 20 years old so it couldn't hurt to replace them when I paint...

Re: New door latches?
Classic has them up to 88. The ones for 88 are like a hundred as the 82-87 I believe were 300. Anyone know what the difference is? They all should bolt up as the doors are the same as are the outside handles. I know the power door lock actuators could have changed, attached to latch. Can't think of anything else that could be different.

Re: New door latches?
I would really like to know this as well... Although I think just degreasing and then regreasing mine might do the job of restoring the ones i have. They don't look too difficult to remove (3 torx bolts and disconnecting a few rods (one from lock and one from door handle) I think?)

Re: New door latches?
Yeah, door latches are about $360 EACH. Even if they were a pair that would be outrageous. I refuse to pay that amount. I'll be looking around for some nice ones at the junkyard.
