This weekend, I decided to try to fix the locks on my door handles. According to the previous owner, they haven't worked (to lock or unlock the doors) since before he bought the car. Thanks to this forum, I was able to remove the outer door handles and disassemble the locks. They were filthy inside and totally jammed up. Unfortunately, some of the springs that move the lock wafers were destroyed in the process.
Can anyone please point me toward a good source for buying replacement springs, and maybe a couple of wafers, too (at least one should really be replaced)? Thanks! |

Bill, I can send you a couple of springs. The wafers are a different story. There are seven different wafers and over 100,000 combinations of which slot they fit in. Replacement of one wafer must use the same wafer. A measurement must be taken with a dial caliper. Pm me and we can go over how to measure or you can send me your lock and key and I'll make it like new.
