2001 Winnebago Brave plastic window latches broken

[captnjonesy]

Does anyone here in the forum have experience replacing broken plastic window latches ? My Brave has a few broken window latches on the sliding windows. the plastic latches appear to be riveted to the window frame. I have not found replacement latches anywhere or any information on replacing them.


thanks for any help

Like the parts shown here?

Googling the part number finds a lot more info. A lot of "out of stock" though. Saw a link to thingaverse too, if you're up to printing one.

Also found the attached instructions. Have to drill out the rivets.

Yes that looks like the part except for the bolt instead of rivet.I guess I will just drill out the old rivets and install with the bolts.I wish I could find part in metal instead of cheap plastic but I will see how long these last (the old latches were broken when I bought the motorhome).


Thank you very much for your help

These are pretty hard to track down, but my wife found this to replace our broken latch.
