    I'm needing new door latch mechanisms for my 1977 308 GTB. The lock barrels are fine, it's the latches that are spotty.
    They don't always latch properly. I've had them out and apart to clean, but still can't get them to work properly.
    Does anybody have a set they may want to sell? I've got a price from a US Ferrari parts source of $266 each, so I'm hoping to do better than that if possible.

    Maybe somebody knows a better (lower-priced) source for new ones... Ferrari UK? Can't find a parts website/contact for them...

    Part #s: 60108008 and 60108107

    Thanks,
    Greg in Houston

    You go thru the Ferrari Owner's Site to reach Classic Parts UK Ferrari

    They have to be adjusted spot on, brudda, it's tricky....but for that money I'd have Vintage look at them before I trashed them....

    They took in my yellow car this AM with a misfire.....real busy but taking emergency cases.....:D :D

    Then I walked home for another one.....LOL!

    They look like they should match up to a Mercedes, try 123 or 126 or 116 body cars first.
