Subject:Rear Hatch Lock '90 Carat to '85GL???
From:Jeff Lincoln

Hello Everyone -

I was wondering if anyone knows if I can swap the rear hatch lock mechanism
from my '90 Carat into my '85 GL? The GL had no key for any of the doors. So
I have already replaced both front doors and the slider with no problems but
ran out of time to look into the hatch lock. I do have the one removed from
the Carat.

I thought there might be some issues since the Carat had the universal lock
mechanism.

Input is greatly appreciated.
