  I am in need of a lt front door inside remote complete w/o the latch. Anyone out know where might find it. At least under $250. These must be really rare. I can't find any repos. NOS is $595 a pair. WOW!! Help please. Last thing I need before I fire this car up and drive it.

Here's what I found out while working on my pickup. Most Ford latches and mechanisms are the same. So, your 36 maybe very similar to a 1937, 38, 39.

I was able to use a 81T in my 1936 pickup, and once the door panel goes on, only I (and everyone who reads this) will know.

  I have to assume that when you say you need a "door remote" you are referring to the inside handle assembly with the rod that attaches to the latch?

  Early Vs late 36 are different. Is your handle more towards the front of the door or in the middle?

Also some differences in coupes and 4 doors.

What length do you need from the latch to the handle?

I have one that I could remove from the latch
