Latch Striker - picture needed

[Jean]

This might sound really odd but my driver side door lock/latch is on the fits and I need to confirm something. Mine is catching on the bottom side of the door lock and the countersunk head screws just won't budge.

What does your door latch striker look like? Looking at realoem it appears that they have changed around 9/87 .

I could help, but I need to know a bit more about what you want me to take a pic of?

i currently have my striker removed so what do you need a pic of?

[Jean]

Latch striker is the part attached to the chassis, the door lock locks onto it. I need to confirm it's shape and position, a couple pictures of it indicating year/model of the car would help.

The 2 parts on the left go on the outside. the rubber gaskets go between them and the body. The part on the right goes on the inside

What year car is that from? Mine looks different. I assume it's from your 90?

^those ones can be swapped side to side on the car so they don't rattle anymore.

Accident, thank you!

I gotta replace the one on the driver side, I replaced the door lock already and it's still sticking.
