Vehicle Application and Placement

The presented lock is designed for installation on the front right door, corresponding to the passenger side in left-hand drive vehicles. The component works with the factory handle mechanism and door rods, thus restoring standard opening and locking operation after correct installation.

The vehicle placement is clearly defined, which simplifies the selection of the correct component and minimizes the risk of ordering errors. This is particularly important for door locks, where geometry and mounting points are precisely matched to a specific side of the body.

Original Ford Part – Fit and Functionality

The lock comes from the Ford line, meaning it adheres to factory manufacturing standards and is compatible with the vehicle's body and electrical system. The original design ensures:

• correct positioning relative to the door panel and pillar,
• compatibility with standard external and internal door handles,
• appropriate operating characteristics of the locking mechanism.

As a result, the lock can be used as a direct replacement for the factory part, without the need for modifications or adjustments to the mounting points. This is a particularly beneficial solution for workshops and users expecting a predictable installation process.

Performance Characteristics and Installation Benefits

As a product from the Locks and Latches category, it is responsible for a key aspect of vehicle operation – seamless door opening and closing. Replacing a worn or damaged lock with a functional component allows you to:

• eliminate problems with the passenger side door closing properly,
• restore correct locking using the handle or central locking system,
• reduce play and improper positioning of the door leaf.

Used condition means the part comes from a dismantled vehicle, which in practice allows for factory-like fit while maintaining a favorable price-to-quality ratio. This is a sensible choice when the priority is to efficiently restore vehicle functionality.

Part Identification and Technical Compatibility

The product has an assigned OEM part number and interchangeable numbers, which facilitates unambiguous identification in service catalogs and parts selection systems. Technical specifications also include information on SKU and vehicle placement, allowing for quick verification of compatibility with a specific body version.

Before purchasing, it is advisable to compare the part numbers with your vehicle's details or consult a mechanic to confirm that the lock is suitable for your intended application. This approach reduces the risk of incorrect selection and speeds up the repair process.
