3 & 5 door drivers door module are they the same?

[sarahs_gti]

Got the good old microswitch failure causing the car to lock itself and not always set the alarm first time on locking.

A mate of mine has given me a locking mech from a 3 door drivers door that's working properly, but don't wanna go to the hassle of changing it if the 3 door one won't work in my 5 door.

Anyone know if it will work?

Cheers

drivers module

passenger module which does the rear left

rear right passenger

I believe there are 3 types listed above..

So to clear that up a bit lol
The front ones fit both 3 and 5 doors then?

[tech1889]

well the front passenger one will fit the rear left but it wont fit the rear right iirc..

it'll fit fine. make sure you only use the module though none of the cables will be the right length.

Cool, cheers all for the help!

Front are the same though they are sided, N/S & O/S.

Cables are different lengths.
