Thread: Need top left top latch

  1. #1

    Default Need top left top latch

    What I need is the part that screws to the inside windshield at the top left.
    The slender piece with the catch hook.
    Apparently the hook part on mine is worn too much and my top keeps poppong open on that side.
    I have adjusted every way I know and replaced the latch on the top but it still causes problems on and off.
    Anyone have one?

    I have an extra in my garage but don't recall which side it's from. If it's the left side you're welcome to have it.

    Default Left and right catches

    I've looked at a coule of dealer sites and either cannot find the latch catch or it comes as a kit with both sides and screws. Anyone know if the left and right for a 92 are different?
    TIA

    The left and right are different on my '94 - there's a groove on the outboard side of the catch hook.
