Door lock insert for VW Polo 6N and other VAG cars

thingiverse

Many 1990s VAG vehicles, including my trusty Polo 6N and SEAT as well as Skoda cars, use the same faulty lock mechanism. To fix it, I'll need a replacement insert and a tool to compress the spring. While this part is better than nothing, I highly recommend purchasing the full repair kit for the metal component. Printing it with PLA might lead to premature failure, but it's still a useful temporary solution if you're in a bind for a week or two.
