Brothers,
I'm not sure what the part is called but it is used to position and support the door when closed. These are located above and below the door latch on the body. I need one of these.

Thanks,

Millard

As far as I know all Wedges used Ford Cortina IV/V door locks and catches. These were also used on the (European) Granada, and possibly on the Ford Escort (RWD). These may or may not have central locking, the actual lock assy is the same.

Mine does not have any separate 'support' piece, but it's probably a good idea as the door sag.

If you mean the flanges around the 'pin' thing, that's all one item.

I don't know if US models had to have extra safety items - would not be surprised
