Review on 🔒 High-Quality Rear Tailgate Hatch Lock Assembly Replacement for Mercedes W164 GL320 GL350 GL450 GL550 W251 R320 R350 R500 R63 AMG 2007-2012 (Replace # 164 740 07 35, 164 740 03 35) 1647400300 by Ted Boone

Mercedes dealer wanted over $400 for a new lock. I found several videos on YouTube showing how to disassemble the lock and fix very common problems with it. Unfortunately, when I disassembled my old lock, I found that one of the aluminum shafts needed to drive a pair of plastic gears had snapped in half. There was no way to rebuild it together. I took a chance and went with an aftermarket solution and it worked out well. Visually, it looks just like the original. Let's see how long this lasts. I just installed it in my car and it worked just like the original lock.
