[ICCARS]

Hi Chris,

I would look into using something like a VE commodore latch as opposed to the bear claw latches, as I don't recall the bear claw latches having a disengagement lever for central locking, whereas the VE latches do. You would need to make a bell crank in order to operate the outside door handle, but otherwise you could do what you wanted with the internal levers etc.. The striker you have on your car now may be OK also, but it would just be a matter of checking the relevant diameter.
I will post a photo of the regulator I have here in a minute, as they are nice little compact units with a cross over wire push/pull that looks to me like you could make it work for your application?

Cheers
Wil
