Over the last years I have decided that when I need one part for my Reatta I buy two. If a part breaks on one it is surely going to break on another. The exception is brake lines and fittings. I am very surprised that neither store has a good supply of metric flares as the whole automotive industry has gone metric. Now you have me thinking I should start stocking brake line fittings...

I went to open my pass through door today, unlocked it and it wouldn't open. The right side wants to fall but the left side feels locked still. At first I thought the handle latch was broken like my cubbard ones that snapped. Found out the latch does not work like those and simply slides a metal bar left and right when unlocking and locking. I took the door panel apart and realized the the metal bar wasn't pushing the mechanism open all the way and not unlocking it for the metal pins to clear. Instead of trying to take it apart more and breaking something I simply super glued a small piece of cardboard on the metal slide to extend it out enough. Sorry if confusing but here's pictures to help.
