Locks just broke (1978 5000CS Turbo Quattro)

[E. Smith]

Andrew,

You saved the day! The driver-side door locks just fine when it is closed!

I can live with that for sure. Thank you very much.

Anyone know how I can disable this irritating safety feature to allow
me to lock the driver-side door manually while it is open?

-eiren.
