For the last 20 years my door locks have not been in working order, so with the new CB I just hung from the dash, I thought it might be time to fix the locks, I have what I believe to be the rod that goes from the key linkage to the door latch, its about three inches long, looks sorta like a fish hook except where the eye would be its bent almost 90 to the length with a groove out near the tip, does this sound like it might be the correct one? Also what type of clips hold this rod in place? Thanks

Hopefully some members here might have some spare clips that attach to the rods. There's plenty of similar ones that sorta work but the correct ones are difficult to find.

Thanks for the help. So I have the correct rods, now I'll start digging thru all the old boxes of stuff I have stored out in the garage. Again, many thanks..
