Door Latch Problem
« on: 14 January 2008, 12:26 »
Baisically, the rear passenger side door latch is buggered. The only problem is that my car does not have central locking and i cant find one that will fit anywhere, tried all the scrap yards. Nothing.

Anyone any ideas where i should look?

if you can't find one at the scrap yard, then i'd check flea bay or bite the bullet and go to the stealers
