Window latch question


Recommended Posts

My Roadtrek 190 has an old style window latch and I am trying to find a replacement latch.

A photo of the latch is shown below.  The latch should allow the window to open a few inches and securely latch when closed, but it does not work smoothly.

Does anyone know where replacement latches are available?

Thank You Paul

I too need window latches. I have a 2015 Itasca Eclipse with a dozen latches of which 4 are broken. Called Winnabego and was quoted $75 each. I’ll be damed if I’m going to pay $300 for 4 window latches. Looked at a couple of RV Surplus places and they only sell the entire window not just the latches. There has got to be a place to get them for @$10 each.

Most manufacturers assemble parts that are available from their source manufacturer.  Try to find a PN or maker name on the part and use Google to help you.  I found some slide seal material this way.  Took some research and because it is a Teton, sourcing from manufacturer is not an option.  Compared to RV sources, I paid 1/2.

Having had that same model ourselves, are you sure that isn't a Dodge part?  I don't recall Roadtrek in those days having made changes to windows that were mounted in doors. Those kinds of flip-out windows are pretty common on vans configured to carry passengers.

Utah Paul, looking at the latches in your pictures, I notice the right side latch looks like somebody replaced a black "pin" with an 1/8" or 3/16" pop rivet. The left side latch shows two black headed pins. I wonder if the "rivet" is what is binding up? I keep Googling Dodge  and Dorman latches. If I come up with something I'll let you know. I'm like docj, don't know Roadtrek that well but it looks like a Dodge OEM part.
