Need a latch to cannibalize for a replacement button. While I had mine apart for powder coating, I lost one of the pushbuttons. A reproduction latch is different (I've already tried), has to be an original VW latch with a decent button (not pitted).

Just one lone button :D .
I tried modifying one of these repo buttons to work in this VW handle and there is something different inside, it won't seat far enough to put the pin in :mad: . I could use a whole repo assembly but then it wouldn't be powder coated...
Thanks for any scraps you can throw my way, I'll pay top dollar!
