After 31 years, I had to replace my left door lock assy because of several clacking noises after opening or closing.
I wanna say many thanks to Prime member Old Guy, who gave me good advices and finally the motivation for that work, even with the risk, that the final alignment of the side window after installation could be a pain.
Finally it ended as a DIY job within 4 hours without any issues, because I started first after I was prepared for each step.
I could do each day again, that kind of chirurgical work makes fun....no pain for me.
The door lock assy has country specific (different) part numbers, in my case 72150-SL0-G13 was the matching number.
Even a german Honda workshop wasnt able to gave and order me the matching part number, G02 was wrong and the parts were already discontinued. Also the price of 718 Euro was unacceptable high.......but usual for Germany, because we support the Honda world market.
The new assy came new with an additional plastic cover for dust protection, finally there was no need for any new clips, because they were preinstalled already, except the clip from the rod to the cylinder.
Glad that this clip with a simple design was like new at my old unit and the new rod slided in tight.
Good, because no parts catalogue showed me that clip and the matching part number.
(04721-SL0-000 is different)
Attached some pictures, which I took during installation.
