The invention relates to a motor vehicle door lock, comprising a lock case () and also comprising at least one locking mechanism () supported in the lock case (), which locking mechanism consists essentially of a rotary latch () and a pawl (). In addition, a lock housing () connected to the lock case () is realized. The lock case () is mostly L-shaped in the cross-section. In addition, the lock case () describes a locking-mechanism plane (G) and an end-plate plane (S) different from the locking-mechanism plane. The end-plate plane (S) is equipped with a bridge part (), which spans at least one inlet opening (E), and two side parts (). According to the invention, the lock case () is equipped with merely the two side parts () bordering the inlet opening (E), without a bridge part. In contrast, the lock housing () acts completely or partially as a bridge part ().
