Default 1989 GT: HATCH PROBLEMS

mmk, my bro has an 89 GT Hatch, and ever since he got rearended, it never worked the same, we got it to close, but now its misaligned, and when we (just now) tried to realign it, it wouldnt latch, and we found out the little clippy things arent turning, and apperently are prone to failure as theres a different latch/striker in my 92


anyways, is there somewhere he could get a new hatch latch and striker?

ya mine dose this to but wasnt wreckd. i think the latch just wore out and when u go to shut it the 2 round things dont latch and lock.. try to latch both the round things before you close ur hatch this works good for me.
