Hi all,

New member here (but i've been lurking for a bit :wink: ).

I have a 91 Vitara swb tintop that has been a dedicated daily for a while now that was broken in to.

The interepid theives made off with an ancient navman that insisted on telling you that you were driving underwater - but not before completely punching out my door lock!

The passenger side door has not worked for many a year either but now that both doors are unusable i am sick of getting in via the boot :?

I have since been looking for replacement door locks but not having any luck!

Anyone know of somewhere i could get these, so far both ebay and the internet in general have failed me?

I also have an oil leak at the front of the engine (1.6 8V) but cannot for the life of me locate it! I was thinking crank/cam seal? any of these common places to leak? (i tried searching the forums but im not having much luck!)

Thanks!

I know they don't list the 1991, but maybe try speaking to these guys? Order from Supercheap unless you can order from these guys direct

Thanks, I should have mentioned that!

I have actually been making my way through wreckers calling a few each week with no success.

personally i'd hit up the forsale section on here for anyone that is parting out a vitara... it's a win win situation, someone gets rid of some crap & you get door locks.

Theres a vitara at jolly rogers in dandenong.

Prices are on their site, you could take the locks down to a locksmith and get them matched to your existing key.
