HishamB=> It is the latch/Lock that I am inquiring about. That's what I thought. The latch is also easy to remove from the door, and there are a couple of failure modes, so it would be good to know what went wrong -- it may be repairable. But if not, you'll have to go looking for a good one at the salvage yard. As far as I've seen no other VW latch will work, and the Type 3s are NLA as far as I know, though it wouldn't hurt to ask a vintage-friendly VW dealer. I had a broken one on my 34 and got a good one from a Square that's exactly the same, so I expect a Type 3 latch will work for you, but they are left/right specific, so bear that in mind.
