MG MG Y Type - Door latch/steering wheel

Hello does anyone know if anybody makes door latches and/or the center cap/horn button for the yt?
Thanks

Horn centers and push are the same as MG TD.

Door latches are pretty unique to MG Y and are not made by anyone. The Y/YB front and YT are the same through the range.

What is wrong with yours? Most common problems are either handle droop (see Hints and Tips to correct this) or wear on the tongues.

Td instead of truck

While the TD does have a steering wheel center it does not operate a horn.
The horn on a TD is a panic button on the dash.
Some TD owners have have modified the center to accommodate a horn button.

My bad Larry - it was Austin Healey that had a similar deal. If all you need is the center and push switch I may have one lurking in my spares. Email me off line.
