| Post subject: | Original chrome sliding window latches |
Am I going crazy? I've just fitted the drivers sliding windows and for the life of me I cannot get the windows to lock into the last hole when fully closed. Thought there must have been different latches for each side, but all four are the same. So when I go to fit the passenger side (which I haven't done yet), the button will be facing the other way -i.e. instead of the button facing towards the font of the car like on the drivers side, it will face towards the rear of the car. Is that correct? |

All four latches are unique. Buttons face towards the rear and the front ones are the wider/deeper ones as they have to reach across the extra channel |

Thanks Tim, then I must have 4 left hand ones! I've got the deeper ones, but they are the same both sides. Same as the rears. No wonder they don't line up. Does anyone have 2 drivers door chrome ones? Don't really want to have to buy the plastic ones, but can't find the chrome ones on any of the sites. |
