Baggage Door Slam Latch

[RWRiley]

This spring I had to replace the baggage door slam latches on my Bullet Premier. They were frozen, I was in a hurry, and the rest of the story makes me sound like a Bull in a China shop :) So, I called my dealer, and they wanted something crazy like $65 each. So I looked around and found a company called RV Lock, and got 2 of them for about what the dealer wanted for 1. It fit perfectly, and I didn't have to drill out the rivets and replace the old backing plate. They just screwed right into the old plate. Before I ordered it, I asked them if it would fit the old plate and they said "No" and they don't recommend it. But I did it anyway, and it works just fine.

So, no real question here. Just thought I would share.
