Parts needed - TVSV, taillight, window trim

[spencercat]

Needed for my '84 T4wd:

TVSV- I tried to fix the broken off plastic top, but every time I repair it breaks off again. I've read the threads about TVSVs and want to see if someone has one available that might work before exploring other options, like a weber.

Other parts needs:

Rear taillight housing - drivers side only.

Passenger side rearmost window trim - this is the metal part that snaps onto the rain gutter above the large rear side window.

Both front parking light housings - next to headlights on front corners. Picked some up in a junkyard, but they were also busted, just not as bad as my originals.

tailgate latch - The hatch only opens/closes with the key, and the twist mechanism is busted. I need a replacement mechanism that I could swap my key mechanism with.

I'm in spokane Washington and have a tercel sitting in my front yard if you can make it down you can pull whatever you need. Send me a pm if interested

I've got the tailgate latch stuff. I'll have to look in the attic for it though. I'll post pics when I get it down.

I may have the tailgate latch somewhere, I would need to dig it up.

do you know what part is bad? is it the part that you twist, or the pushrod part, the end where the latch mechanism attaches the pushrod?

[spencercat]

Petros: the symptoms are that the hatch will (usually) only open with the key, if it is not also locked with the key it will not completely close. I tried to fix it but broke a small tab off the cylinder. Does that help?

[Petros]

sounds like you might need more than just the cylinder. If I can find the whole latch, and cylinder you are welcome to it. I will not be able to search for it until the weekend. lets see what I can find, I think I have a whole rear hatch that is dented and only good for parts. it should have what you need.

Thanks, Petros! PM me with cost to get it to 06870 and I'll ping you with my address. Have a great weekend!

I have the latch part, the black part you twist you can see from the outside, and the cylinder on the back side, with the small lever on it, with a plastic clip hanging off. Is this the part you need?

I will have to remove it from the spare rear hatch I have.

[spencercat]

Petros- yes that's the part! Any chance you've got any of the other things I need, like marker lights or the trim piece over the rearmost P/S window?

[Petros]

I might, I have to do a good search for them, I have boxes of parts from two different Tercels that went to the crusher. some I used on other project cars, some are still kicking around and I would be happy to get them out of my garage. I just do not have a lot of time to search for them, may have to take the time to organize and clean out the garage (which needs to be done anyway, I just do not want to take the time to do it), and than I will likely find two or three of each item.
