Did a search and didn't see anything, but perhaps I didn't do the search right.
Specifically interested in fitment and how close they are to factory NOS...as well as any design improvements? Mine work okay, but the chrome is tired and the thought of rechroming fatigued metal is unappealing. NOS means a search, while I wonder about the quality of later factory parts given what we've seen. The 914rubber pieces could be a nice alternative, but I'd love some pics and feedback from those who bought them. Thanks in advance! pete |

I think a good place to start is a flapper repair kit. .. I’ll post up more as this comes together. Mark Good idea. I think your right. The lock/main body can be repaired. When you say it can be repaired, are you talking about the round pivot holes of the main body? Or something else? |
