Im after some replacement door lock pins for my murena, mine are plastic and seem to have lost there thread over the years, I imagine its a renault thing but thought i'd check with you guys first as they come with differing threads.... I was going to buy some nice black alloy ones, maybe silver but may look a bit chav? whats your thoughts, maybe i should get plastic ones?

Renault??
They look exactly like the ones my old Simca 1100 was fitted with.(About the only part of the car that wasn't rusted away, when I scrapped it :-) )
So my guess is that they are shared with Simca 1100, 1307, 1510?, Solara(Alpine in UK) and possibly others.

I might have a couple of spares. If I can find them they are yours for the price of a stamp.

It would seem that mid 90's VW polo door lock pins are the same thread, but look a bit dinky as they are very slim. Just thought i'd report my findings....

I don't know where mine are from, but Roy have replaced them at some point with some that don't have a head. For security reasons, of course. I've never seen my car differently, so I think it looks okay ;)
