Hi all - as the title suggests, I am after the door latch mechanisms for my 1986 LR90.

These are the whole latch units for the lift up handles.

MUC6979
MUC6980

I am aware these are like unicorns these days!
Thanks!

Have you tried blanchards?

what’s wrong with your latches? ( I have 2 awaiting repair on my doors)
You can get the front levers/handles as they are off other motors

See below for condition of current latches. Has anyone rebuilt theirs at all? Is it easy?

As @Hicap phill , try Blanchard's or even H&H Supplies. If none available I think your existing units would strip and clean up perfectly well. Give them a thorough buzz back and degrease followed by a good zinc/plate coating. Dry and lube free-up mechanism, add new locks, thoroughly re-grease and re-fit for next decade.

Can’t be much inside them as the latches all are exposed. I just have to rebuild my doors before I need locks
