trunk latch problem/question
my trunk just recently decided to break on me somehow. About 3 weeks ago, it would no longer close. after trying everything and what not, i realized it is the latch on the trunk itself that is broken.
i took it to a shop to get an estimate, and they said to put on a new trunk latch it will cost $230 . What are your thoughts on this price? if i were to do this myself, would it be an easy fix and where the hell do i go about finding a trunk latch? thanks |
to put on a new latch is quite simple..
remove the trunk lining and you will see it's 2 bolts holding it down and a clip for wiring harness if I recall..... just buy the piece yourself and save yourself some $$$ it's not that hard.. |
any idea where i can find a latch?
i searched ebay and hte internet to no avail i need the piece that is on the trunk itself...not the electric locking mechanism that is on the car |
I got both pieces from a junkyard for $10.00. Took about 5 minutes to install both pieces. Mine wouldnt open. As in the "trunk itself" do you mean the body or the trunk lid? Either way $230=huge ripoff, very simple job to diy.
