I think it's the knob that you rotate to unlock and lock them. As all the civil ones I have seen have a circular knob while the military ones appear to have the type that are displayed on those door tops.
 
One person is supposed to be contacting me this weekend, but otherwise no joy.
 
Thanks.

It's because it isn't exactly what I want by far, but also being a petrol it is very heavy on fuel. A V8 LR does better than these 2.25 Petrols.
 
As tempting as it is, firstly I don't want to ruin a largely unmolested vehicle with a genuine 83,000 miles on it and secondly the insurance implications make it a no-go. Unfortunately. :(

What I'll get after it, if it does sell, I don't know quite yet.

One thing is for sure is that if it won't sell for what I want, then I shall be keeping it.
 
Yes they will fit any 2/2A/3. They can be worth the effort, as they're aluminium and not steel. They're 'cooler' too in both senses of looks and operation. ;)

if you order replacement locks for them they come with the smaller flip up type lever. Similarly, if you order replacement knobs, the flipper type has superceded the big round one. The flipper type offers the advantage that you know when the window should be locked.
Stictly speaking they were never fitted to civ 90s, they were only available on 110s until the facelift in August 1984. So they were only fitted to civ vehicles for about 6 months.
