Part from Ebay showed up & it's good. Quiet and fast puts the other windoze 
to shame.  The door system is very well built and easy to work with.. but 
removal and installation basically took almost a full day. I can't imagine a 
shop not charging a $1000 w/parts in for that job. It's PIA.

Looking at the driver's door lock - the mechanical arm was busted off and 
the gear to rotate the  zentral locking microswitch fell apart in my hand.

So no choice but to add some remote locks which turned out to be a 20 or so 
minute job. Wired it all in at the lock motor beside the battery. Rot/Braun 
and Gelbe/ Braun are the command lines and these are switched to earth. I 
had remotes & a module sitting on the shelf so just added power, spliced the 
lines in and it was a done deal.

Verboten soldiers on.
