hard top locks

#1 by Andymac64 ( Guest ) , Sat May 03, 2014 10:19 pm

I have a 2008 Animal with hard top. in 3 years I have had 3 different locks fitted because they have seized up. Mitsubishi will not change the locks or accept fault as I do not have the servicing done by a main dealer.
does anyone know of an alternative lock / handle that will fit the pre drilled glass door on the back?
thanks Andy

Is it a T bar type locking handle?

I don't think so. It pivots on the left like a door handle with the key fitting into the pivot part. Sorry about the poor description.

It looks similar to the L locking handle shown in white. However the base plate is the same length as the handle. Not sure of canopy make. It is colour coated to match the L200 with a glass rear door.
Is it possible to upload photos?
