CS1 Trunk Lock Cylinder Retention

Post by opus10583 »

Hi,

Another "pleasant" surprise from the 'parts assembled but not secured' Spider:

Trunk lock cylinder has come completely out of the lock. No evidence, once I broke into my own trunk, anything other than inertia, grime and probability were holding things together all along.

I assume clips of some sort hold the cylinder in the lock and then the actuating rod to the cylinder; type, size, etc.?

Thanks,
Mark
