Plastic Door Latch 'Cover'

Post by JerryH »

On my '76, the driver's side door latch has a plastic cover over it:

The passenger side doesn't have the cover:

The drivers side door seems to operate just fine, but the passenger door doesn't operate so well. It doesn't pop open when the door latch is operated. I'm guessing that this cover is necessary for the door to 'snap' open when the door latch is operated.

I've looked in Vicks and IAP's catalogs and I can't find a replacement part for this. Anyone know where I can get one of these plastic covers?

Thanks,
