Rock Guard Latch

Anybody had to replace one? On my E19 0ne front rock-guard latch broke, Escape is giving me the runaround, found some on Amazon but not exact match.

Effie, I am also searching for this latch. I have tried RV shops, eTrailer, and hardware stores. Did you have any luck getting a replacement?

I found a replacement on Amazon after a couple of failed attempts. It is slightly shorter so it’s positioned closer to the window cover but it doesn’t create any problem. Also, I had to use the locking tongue (the part seating under the window lip when locked) with the one from the original latch. Installed over a year ago, no issues after few thousand miles.

Both of ours broke years ago. I always figured we'd be better off whittling new ones of wood - but haven't done it yet. We manage to latch and unlatch our window cover without a handle. The thing fits so tightly that I'm not at all sure the latches are needed.
