Richard - you're also missing the plastic bit that fits on the striker (the claw bit in the middle of your pic).

 

My 2000CS is missing that, as well.  Any pictures of what it looks like, and where I can source a replacement?

Andre Meisel in Germany has also made door buffers and the little doohickeys we're talking about.

Originally they'd have been instaled as it all went together, but with a little cutting you can get them to pop on (bit fiddly) and they've been good for me for at least 3 years so far. You could also take it all apart, but I couldn't see the benefit for the amount of work involved. Here's some pics Andre sent me ages ago - how to pull apart and how to install them without pulling apart:

Excellent, Nick, thanks so much for the pictures and details.  These little doohickeys have a similar function to the "corn kernal" used on the closer of a 2002.  

 

I will drop a line to Andre

Does anyone know if these door buffer pieces and the related piece on the latch itself (so eloquently and aptly described as a “doohickey’” in this thread) is available anywhere?

I am interested in a set of buffers, if there are any unclaimed when they’re ready!

Hi Cooper, yes I still have them available.  How many do you need? Is your car a 4 door or 2 door?

 

Regards,

Nung
