Door latch plate broke - not mechanism
The Striker Plate (with four screw holes) that is secured to the rear jamb of the door opening, onto which the door latch mechanism locks, has broken/sheared - it appears to be pot metal. The break is on the passenger side just below the adjustable pin onto which the door latch slides and engages. Cause of break is unknown other than probably slamming the door too hard and everything not being fulled aligned. The plate does not appear to be repairable.
Does anyone have such a plate that I can purchase rather than buying many parts I don't (currently) need (i.e. two lock mechanisms and a driver's side plate)? Thank you - Tom |
Moss Motors 401-408 may be your best bet if SPF uses the original latch. From an MG TD/TF.
