Door... Needs an extra hole drilling in it for the lock, best to take the old lock out and line up the new lock to work out where the hole is... I didn't really do a very good job at this...



catches...

On mine (which i'm now thinking might be bent...) the drivers side doesn't line up just bolting the new catch in place of the old one...



However, using one of the spaces from the old catches does the job perfectly:



Door needs a gentle shut to securely shut, however ,a proper little slam for the lock to fully engage and allow it to be locked.

For some reason my passenger side catch needed recessing, so, i cut a hole for it with the dremel...



The bottom slots in and bolts as normal, but i used a longer M10 bolt at the top to brace it against the back of the bulkhead...

Job done...

Drivers side took about 30 - 40 minutes - passenger side took about 1 1/2 hours due to all the fettling to make it work.

IIRC when I did fitted the series doors to the 90 I had to space the catch out as well.

Yep, seems standard from what i've read - and the old spaces on the old catches work for the new ones... just no idea what's going on on my passenger side, had to recess it 10mm to make it fit - about 15mm in compared to the drivers side with the spacer?!

I found puttin a bit of black paint on the end of the lock and pressing from the inside making a mark easier than gauging it with the eye! And using the step drill supplied from with the kit I got much neater when drilled from the back
