Hello,

 

The four door front latch will work on the two door car but the rear latch is different from the front.  At least it was on the 56 DeSoto.

 

regards,  LeRoy

Hello, I have gotten some great ways to open the door, when I replace the door latch will the 4 door and 2 door latches interchange??

Thank.

This happened to my car as well, what worked for me was- with the windows rolled down I could see the latch from above in the door jam. I used a long drill bit and effectively cut the (body) latch in two, that is to say the latch piece that attaches to the body, the door openned and all I had to do was remove and replace this piece and of course fix the broken door latch that caused the problem. I was able to remove the door panel much easier after the door was open. Hope this helps Tim
