On my 2004 LC, the rear passenger door lock is motor/actuator is no longer strong enough to lock/unlock the door (it'll flip the lock knob/lever to show orange or grey, but it will need an extra push to get it to actually lock or unlock). Unfortunately, I am not handy enough to do the motor replacement as contemplated by the awesome door lock actuator thread (also, if the door panel squeaks when it's put back on, I need someone to yell at). I am having new speakers put into my truck and I'd like to give the installer what he needs to fix the door lock at the same time. What I need is a replacement part that the installer can just swap out (once he's got the panel off) with no modification/fabrication. I know I'll need to pay more for the part, but I hope this will still be less expensive than having the dealer fix the lock.
With that in mind, can someone tell me what the part I need is called and/or provide a part number? I've looked at some online parts sites, but I can't seem to find it.
Also, does anyone have any recommendations as to where to get the part for a reasonable price. There were some guys on this site (I forgot their names) who worked at a dealer's parts department who gave pretty good deals. I'd like to buy from a forum supporter/someone who provides information on this board so long as the prices are generally comparable.
Thanks in advance for suggestions.
