Features, Description, Q&A, Specs & Installation
Secure Door Function. The Door Lock Cylinder Pawl restores crisp locking action and dependable exterior handle linkage for 1970-1982 Chevrolet Corvette C3 models, ensuring the latch responds cleanly with each turn of the key. As a direct replacement reproduction part, it brings back the precise engagement your classic deserves, helping the lock cylinder translate motion into positive latch movement. Small but essential, it keeps everyday access smooth and confidence-inspiring.
Construction and Appearance. Built to OE compatible and comparable standards, this passenger side pawl features a durable matte black finish for a discreet, factory-style look inside the door shell. The geometry mirrors original dimensions for consistent throw, while robust material selection resists wear at pivot points and contact surfaces. Reproduction-grade detailing helps maintain correct clearances so linkage travel remains smooth and chatter-free over time.
Installation. Designed for straightforward service, the pawl installs using common hand tools and standard door-trim procedures. Remove the panel, disconnect the lock cylinder clip, and transfer the linkage to the new component before securing everything in place. A methodical approach—test-turning the key to verify full latch release and re-latch, checking rod alignment, and confirming handle feel—yields a quiet, precise result without binding.
Application. This Door Lock Cylinder Pawl fits 1970-1982 Chevrolet Corvette C3 models. It enhances day-to-day convenience by restoring positive key-to-latch engagement, sharpening handle response, and maintaining a tidy, factory-correct operation inside the door.
