I don't know if anyone is interested in doing this, however I have managed to fabricate and install the passenger side door claw latch. I used ideas off of an older truck member of which I can't recall at the moment, but here is what I did. Sorry for them being sideways.Enjoy!

In the last picture you can see the automatic door lock I also installed with the latches. It will only work when the latch is closed or when the door is closed which is why I installed Dakota Digital's Magnum Shooters-
