Installation Instructions

• Remove any interior panel or trim pieces if required and access the door latch assembly of the vehicle.
• Locate and remove the fasteners securing the existing latch assembly to the door frame. Carefully detach the latch mechanism from the door.
• Position the new LH door latch in the same orientation as the old one.
• Secure the latch by tightening the fasteners removed earlier. Ensure the latch is firmly in place, but avoid over-tightening.
• At the end, reassemble the door interior if removed in starting to access the latch assembly. Make sure all components are securely fastened and the door operates properly.

Additional Installation Tips:

• If the new latch does not come with a cable, ensure that the existing cable from the old latch is compatible and in good condition for reuse.
• Lubricate the latch mechanism with a suitable lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
• If you encounter resistance or difficulty during installation, double-check the alignment of the latch and internal components.
