Hey Girls.....

Well good news and bad news......

The cheap door latch fits and mechanically works fine..... It did take a couple of weeks to arrive.... And was shipped "China post" so it is Chineasium... It feels a bit cheaper then
OEM..... But that may be my bias and imagination.....

The bad:

Even though my '98 has a nine pin connector.... As the latch does..... No soap.... I get
No electrical key or window function with this one.... I'm fighting a window won't drop problem.... So it may be just my car.... But I was in a hurry and will trouble shoot it on Friday..... See if I can get it working....
The old latch did raise the window at the key.... But not put it down.... The key in the door lock...(with old latch) .locks and unlocks three times before staying locked at the driver door.... Passenger door and window does nothing from the key lock but power windows both works from inside switch....

But if all you want is a mechanical lock latch.... This may be just the ticket....

Thanks!
F.

P.S. If I set the window just right in the dropped position.... It does go up when you
Close the door.... But it does not drop when I Open the door.... I did just put a new regulator in (the cheap one... I am an idiot) and do have to do the hold the window switch 15 second all the way up and 15 second all the way down trick.... So stay tuned....
