Frequently asked questions

What is the ALR8987 striker plate and what does it do?
The ALR8987 striker plate is the rear-door striker plate that works with the courtesy (interior) lamp. Mounted at the rear door aperture, it gives the latch its contact point and controls the interior lamp as the door opens and closes, switching the courtesy light on when the door's opened.
Why replace the rear-door striker plate?
A worn or corroded striker plate is typically replaced when the door no longer latches cleanly or the courtesy lamp stops switching reliably as the door opens. The striker takes repeated contact every time the door shuts, so wear at the contact face is common. A fresh ALR8987 restores positive latching and lamp operation.
Is fitting the striker plate a DIY job?
Fitting the ALR8987 striker plate is typically a basic job, usually needing hand tools to unbolt the old plate from the rear door aperture and fit the replacement. Most home mechanics can manage it. Check the door shuts and latches squarely afterwards so the catch engages and the courtesy lamp triggers.
