How to Replace a Riveted Winkhaus Cobra Centre Gearbox Door Lock: Quick & Easy Method to Save Money!

Very helpful, particularly the link to the rivets. Why Winkhaus does not (like other manufacturers) use screws is, presumably, to encourage users to buy the whole mechanism. I will avoid Winkhaus mechanisms in future, as mine failed after five years.

Hi, yes that is most likely the reason , would be so much easier if they did use screws.
