petrol cap door latch needed

hey guys, im doing up a 1969 vw beetle and am in need of the mechanism for the fuel cap door latch. dont know exactly what its called, but theres a lever that you pull inside the car which releases the fuel door. i need the actual latch part and the cable, basically everything except the actual fuel door :P
they done sell these new, so if anyone has one on an old bug or something, id really appreciate it.
i dunno if what i just wrote makes any sense ore what, so if u need clarification, just ask.
thanks guys

1. we agree on a price
2. I send you a photo of the latch
3. you send me some money
4. It's small enough to post (cost about $10 postage...But I will confirm.

ragged ·

How much do you want to pay?

jezzaj87 ·

hows $15?

ragged ·

is that $15 plus postage?

jezzaj87 ·

yep

ragged ·

No worries. I'll confirm postage and pull it off later today and send you a photo. I'll also include all the screws etc.
Are there any other parts you need as I have a '69 bug that I'm wrecking out.
