Door locks
My door locks are bad and I was wondering if locks from another car (another Mazda, ford, chevy whatever) will work. I want locks that are more secure than mine.

Surely there is somebody that has replaced their stock locks with something.

Try Ford locks. You have to make the holes alittle bigger but they work.

I really don't want to enlarge the holes unless I absolutely have to. Is there anybody willing to sell their locks?
