Subject:Re: Rear Hatch Lock Question

Looks like no one knows the differences between the manual and power versions.

So, does anyone have a rear hatch lock assembly from a Vanagon with power locks they'd like to sell?

>I have an '87 with power locks that is missing the rear hatch lock cylinder and the "lever" that bolts to it.  I got a cylinder and lever from a Vanagon with manual locks.  All the parts fit, but I can't lock it with the key, as the key won't turn quite all the way.
