I am after a Left hand door lock assembly for a 56-64 beetle, must be lockable from inside the car.
Cheers.

Does anyone know where I can buy a latch/lock from?? The one I have is for a LH drive car and is not lockable, so I cannot lock the passenger door of my car.

For 56-60 you flick the interior handle forward to lock the door and I think the same for 60-64 that didn't have a lock in the push button of the exterior handle.

Thanks psimitar and bushed, i have located and purchased one for a RH drive car.

push the inside door handle forward that locks it

I am aware how it works vw54, but if you have a latch off a LH drive car as i did they do not lock from inside the car, just as you cannot lock the drivers door from inside the car on a RH drive car.

In Australia 65-67 doors use the same lock
