My door latch was a different problem, the fix I'll share. My pax side knob busted off. Since the knob itself is brass or a metal in which you can't weld, instead of trying to drill and tap the little knob, I went to Home Depot and got a chrome drawer pull. I had to get a 1/2" flat head 8-32 machine screw, lock washer and screw cover. If anybody wants a picture I can download. It looks better now with the slightly larger knob than the original one made overseas. I have the same latch as the one everybody sells...Shell Valley, Finish Line, etc. I think I'll go get a second setup so when the driver side fails, I'll have a match ready to install.
