Hi,At the moment the search facility isn't working and i need to get this sorted.A 93 Chimera,the drivers door will not open from the outside but operates ok on the knob.The push button plunger moves inside the mechanism but does not operate the lever inside the recess.Looked like a alignment small piece has come adrift,whilst making a small adjustment the cast piece holding the lever and spring snapped.I have removed the 3 small locking bolts but cannot remove the mechanism.I'm off to work in 15 mins so i will try again in the morning.Any ideas how to remove it and where i can get spares or a new mechanism,if possible i want to retain the original keys.Any advice gratefully received.Cheers

Not sure on the whole removal process but the lock is from a Vauxhall Calibra or Tigra boot
