Condenser door locks

Gus, OEm on your 04 both the Condensor door and the battery door had spring loaded t handles mounted to the bottom of the bus with a grab point for them on the door bottom.

these were metal, not the rubber ones

I'll get the info and send you some photos by email. Much easier than trying to post on the board since my photos are usually just a bit over the 128KB limit.

Doug,

I know, but these were hopelessly bent, broken and rusted. I still use the tabs on the door bottom for the Home Depot latches to grab on to. Same for the battery door.

It appeared to me that the originals had been dragged over something and broken.

FWIW Dzus fastners work better if they are lubed with just a little oil or light grease where the pin meets the spring.

Dzuses are a pain in the neck to install and the slot wears pretty fast. I have had enough of Dzuses on aircraft to last a lifetime!
