Brief Description:  Install Door Latch Mechanism

One of those days where you put in a lot of hours and seem to get little accomplished. I decided to test install the left door latch mechanism. As a reminder, I'm incorporating the PlaneAround center latch assembly and the Aero Sport exterior door handle. After a lot of trial and error I did get everything installed. The biggest unsolved issue I'm dealing with is a roughness in the handle operation. The large retaining ring, which is part of the Aero Sport assembly rubs against the stainless steel mounting plate, which is also part of the Aero Sport assembly, I tried a couple of spacers to pull the retaining ring back which helps some but doesnt fully solve the problem. I polished the retaining ring as well as the stainless steel plate but that also wasn't entirely successful. Tommorow I'm going to look at possibly cutting away some of the stainless steel plate that contacts the ring. It should not affect the purpose of the plate and should also not impact the retaining ring's fiunction. More to come.
