    Default WTB: NB top latches

    I need to buy a new latch. Especially the passenger side. It sometimes comes open on its own if I drive over bumpy roads.

    Different problem on the NAs... the detent fails and there's nothing to hold the latch closed anymore...

    Yeah unfortunately this one is toast. Part of the latch arm is actually broken.

    I'm sure Gary has some lying around. He'd even ship it I bet.
