Apparently, before I bought this car, someone jimmied the ignition lock to steal the car when the original owner was having dinner or something. They also broke open the glove compartment. I want to replace the the liner and latch, I have the door and lock and latch, but I am not sure what all I need besides the liner and striker. My manuals do not show anything. Can someone post a clear picture of the striker assembly or a good mechanical drawing of this?

Vette(s): 1982 C3 Collectors Edition 44000 miles, sat in the sun most of its life, My wife purchased it for me for Father's Day in 2007 from her girlfriend that had it for 19 years. It is on the road again. I'm retired but it is now my daily driver.
I have the assembly drawing for my 82 I'm sure that it is the same. I just have to figure out how to post the pdf of them for you.

could not load a pdf maybe Adam or someone else can tell my why we cannot or how to do it. I did load up some jpg of the drawings. My scanner does both.

The way I did this seems to be a little clumsy. Is there a better way. Of course I do not know if this even works until I post it.
