Urgent lock issues :cry:

[paul geraghty]

The gf has phoned to say the Ibiza (mk2) door will not shut or lock it just bounces back open when closing she callled the useless RAC and they reckon the spring has gone on the catch (the bit the gets the hook to close and lock.

Anyway found a car being broke not too far away is there anything I need to watch out for when removing the lock?

Have to try and sort it tonite.
