What's the consensus on the Chinese knock-off DLAs? I've never heard or read anything good but the OE part is $US230+.

Even if the after-market parts last half the life of the OE part, at this point that's 10+ years.

The oe use pretty cheap motors I wouldn't feel bad about putting knock off DLA in any of the non driver door. I'd be a little more concerned with the driver door just because it interacts with the alarm system and the fragile door cylinder.

+1. Are the locking levers still fully functional? If not I'd maybe add a screw to hold it tight lest it bumps loose over a pothole. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yeah I reseated the connectors on both doors and gave em a little shot of De-oxit. That seems to have solved it for now. Thx.

Yes they are presnt and appear to lock, but they don't seem all that snug anymore, and twice now the alarm chirp stopped working again after a day or so. I'll see if I can find some little screws.

A small amt of silicone works great to hold a molex connector that doesn't grab anymore. Tiny dab on the two long sides. You'll be able to pull out if needed but it should never get loose

The two on the right side work fine. I have a good used one for the left rear and will do both of them now that I have a shitton of those shatter-prone door card clips. Reseated the window switch connectors again, the alarm chirped once, then twice on unlock, then never again... I'll try the silicone thing but I'm wondering if a pin got loose or something.
