there are 3 seals, a felt like seal between the plastic button and the tailgate, which for some reason isnt listed as a replacement part for mk3, need to buy the entire lock?

and 2 round thin washer type seals between the lock and the plastic button, and between the rear clip and the lock cylinder:
111 837 227 B - seal between lock and button - 1.55+VAT
N   900 989 01 - seal between circlip and lock - 0.71+VAT

Nice one John!

I'll get hold of them and I'll get my girlfriend to make me a washer out of felt. She's doing fashion/clothes designer course at uni  :smiley:

Got a pic of the inside.


Right, this is the lock without being pushed out....



And this is the lock being pushed out (as it should)



On the first pic you car see the O-ring is not sealing the lock. On the second pic, when I'm pushing it up, it seals it. I feel like there should be a spring somewhere, pushing the lock outwards...

This is the outside view

As it is



As it should be
