Identify the door lock

A bit of a tale here so bear with me. I have a mk1 GT6 that arrived with fully functioning door catches and strikers on each door. However once I got door locks and the internal pulls, I realised that my current latches were not correct (locks didn't line up and the locating hole for the interior lock pull was round rather than square).

So I managed to track down two replacements catches, fitted them and found that they will not locate into the strikers... I didn't realise there were different profiles.

So.... these are the correct door catches...


These are the 'incorrect' strikers:


This is what happens when I close the door:


Can anyone identify the 'incorrect' strikers... if I can track down replacements (also a prob) then I would like to offer up the now redundant matching strikers and catches as they are in good nick etc... but I don't have a clue what they would have originally came from..

Cheers all

ps if anyone needs a set and has the 'missing' strikers going spare, drop me a line for a swap ;)

Also, the latches on my cars have the same bolt pattern but they have an upside down 'Y' in the pressing, whereas yours are flat in profile, hope you understand what I mean by that.

Cheers migntig... that was a lightning fast response... the door catches I took off do have a Y pressed into them... so looks like the set is from late spitties and/or GT6s...
