    ISO Lock Parts for 89 E34 535i

    Looking to see if anybody has reference 23 from the photo to sell or can direct me to where I can purchase.

    I think I really only need the hook looking part which is the second part back in the assembly

    Any help would be much appreciated. I'm really getting tired of opening the rear door so I can pull up on the lock knob to open the driver's side door.

    Local salvage yards should be able to do a nationwide parts search for you.

    525i and 540i doors are the same I think so parts from those might also fit.

    I had the same issue with my 89. I was successful in loosening the mechanism with rust penetrant. Works fine now.

    Was yours damaged or seized?

    I would post this in the for-sale section as a want add.

    Or PM South42. Andy dismantles lots of e34s and likely can help. Or buy a whole door from a wreckers

    ^^ yup.
    The problem being this is a CS part not really worth the effort to remove.
    If Andy doesn't have a handle already removed I have a spare set of doors and could pull the entire handle for you(no key so you'll need to swap the lock)but am not interested in dismantling this thing. PM if I can help
