330gt 2+2 boot latch

Post by alexander_202 »

I have an early 330gt 2+2 which is missing a boot latch. I bought a NOS part-no 242-34-200-01 boot latch, but it is not the correct latch.

I am looking for is with a square hole pattern as in the attached pictures.

Does anyone happen to have one?

According to the PF body parts catalog, the original part was 242.34.200.0.1. With the change to the interim model (4HL/5 speed), a revised part 242.34.200.1.1 replaced the original one. That version was also used for the 2HL model.

So, either the part you purchased is not marked right or the trunk lid is not correct for an early 330GT.

I actually have two series 1 early (borh among first 45 built) and they have the same bolt pattern on the trunk lid.

When shopping for the part 242-34-200-01 several sources presented the same part.

There ones in the previously attached pictures are of the latch I need. Rhe nochiola colored one is actually an old picture of one of my 330’s.

It exists but seems hard to find. I was hoping anyone here might have one.

This is the series 2/3 latch and it is not the same as the latch is pointing in the opposite direction and looks to have two mounting holes, not four.

Any help or leads are much appreciated.

Here is a two-year-old posting, but maybe they still have it or might be a source for the item you seek, perhaps worth emailing them.
