How to fit a GU Door Lock Mechanism (and what you're doing wrong!)

One of our most common enquiries is to do with the Genuine Nissan GU Door Lock Mechanism, and why a brand new mechanism doesn't appear to be locking properly prior to fitment to any vehicle.

At face value it can seem like the mechanism itself isn't working, but there's a simple trick to test it prior to fitting to your GU, and you'll see how easy it is in our instructional video below!

We've done a full walk through of how to fit the mechanism to your GU, from stripping down the driver's side door to fitting the actual mechanism. It's a super common replacement that we want to make easier for you! Below is the video on YouTube which you'll see at 4:06min our explanation for how to make sure your GU door lock mechanism is working like a charm.

As always if you have any questions please reach out, our sales team are always there to help. If you're in the market for a new door lock mechanism for your GU you can purchase them on our website here.
