I did spend quite a bit of time looking at how this thing works (or in my case how it didnt). I looked at the Bentley Manual and how it compared to my DLM (door lock mechanism) and in the manual it says that the spring needed to be in the proper position for the door to operate properly. That was a BIGGIE for me because this was not in the correct position on my DLM. I basically gave the part a full service job and hope that from here on out it works as it should. Glad I didnt just plunk down the $$ but I am sure someday I will have too.
As far as the ignition switch, I heard they are going to be scarce. Is this the case? I dont think so because so many cars use that same switch right?? This shop in Houston said you will only be able to get the switch in the future if you purchase the whole ignition mechanism not just the ignition switch.
All in all it was a great day and I am so glad my window and door are working. The bad about today is I washed, waxed and detailed my P Car and while taking my son to a b-day party it rained and washed that clean away.
