External door lock cylinder retaining clips

[RobW 0]

Does anyone here have a picture (or name) of the specialised clips used to retain the external door lock in the panel on a series 2? Can't find info on Google.... Cheers.

i guess we are talking MK2 Cortina S2? not sure what you mean with clip, as the stricker plates are held by screws. or do you mean the horseshoe-shaped clip in the pic:

I can only show how the Sierra is,a retaining clip (number 22) that slides under the lugs of the lock

Hi there - if it is a Mk2 as Hans suggested , the lock is in the handle so the set up is entirely different . The only thing that comes to mind , back in the 70s when these cars were targeted , some people put a security type lock into a newly drilled hole - these were called Hykee locks from memory so perhaps you have them fitted ??
