    Good morning all! Can anyone help me with sourcing a LHD DOOR LATCH and Powe window console panel for my 96 Range Rover 4.0 SE? Britparts wants almost $500.00 just for the latch. Thanks Jesse

    Good evening, I opened the latch as you suggested and 2 white pieces fell out. The large one was sitting out of place and the tiny one was rattling down inside a groove, clearly broken from some aother plastic mechanism. The large one has a butterfly shape on the round portion and mate's down...

    Hello all, well I did my best with contacting the switch prongs individually with the multimeter leads. The attached photo shows my results and to get feedback on whether the latch is faulty or Not.

    Hello all, I cut off the shackle in about 1 1/2 hours, far less than the 3 to 4 days of gaining entry and attempting to open the door from the inside (Photos attached). I covered the doors with some aluminum flashing from Home Depot .67 cents a piece. I removed the latch from the door,, placed...

    Okay all I'm going to saw the shackle after work today. Can I get the latch to un-superlock without removing or do I have to remove the latch and replace? Thanks,

    Thanks for all the advice. Going to Home Depot and the best steel cutting blade for my reciprocating saw. Once I get the door open, can I get the latch to un-superlock and work again or do I to replace the latch? Thanks

    Thanks for the clarification. Okay, I just checked with a light and rear door open, I can see the shackle. I could not before but it's cloudy this morning and the garage is darker. I shined the light between the opened rear door and can see the shackle. I will get a blade that cut steel the...

    Good morning, there was a red clip that I could see where the rod from my door handle popped out. It fell off yesterday when I was positioning the rod I made in to the empty hole on the latch. Can you give a bit more detail and what this will accomplish? Also, why won't the door open if I'm...

    Good evening all, looks like I will have to take my 1996 range rover 4.0 SE to a european auto repair shop. Today I bought a 3 feet round rod, bent it to fit the hole in the latch where the linkage rod goes. I looked through the opening of the lock on the door sill, placed the rod in the latch...

    Good evening, No! The front doors locked my son inside and he had to crawl out the rear doors.

    I needed a good laugh! No small hands around here. I almost got my arm stuck trying to maneuver it in a position. It occurred to me this morning, since the rod is not attached to the latch and the key and fob works as they should I just need to move latch lever while pulling on the inside door...

    Well I was able to bend back the door card back just enough to use a extendable mirror to see the rod connected to the door handle pull has popped out from the latch. The door card won't clear the lower speaker near the floor. The back half of the door card toward the rear door can be pulled...

    Good afternoon! Thanks for replying. Since I can't open the driver's door, do you have any ideas of how to turn off the super lock on the driver's door? Attempting to get as many ideas on how to open the door other than a pry bar. Thanks
