Door lock spring: Where to buy? Alternatives?
Well the other day I went to get in my Del Sol and it would not unlock. Tried from the inside, no go. I ended up bending the key from trying to unlock it. So I popped the trim off the door and screwed around with a cloths hanger for 30 min and got it to open.
Took the door panel off locked it and would not unlock. After about another 30 min I found out the problem. The lock assemble (that's right under the outside door handle in the door) has a part where a spring is attached that pulls a little metal lever up. This spring snapped not allowing this lever to pull up.
So my question is does anyone have any idea where to get a replacement spring? I check at Honda/Majestic and you have to buy the whole assemble which is $80/60. I have never had to shop for a spring so I have no idea where to start. Home Depot? I will have pics up soon of exactly what I am talking about.
