I was born at night, but not last night I just got back from my local Monaco Dealr...Affinity RV, where I needed to buy 3 new drawser latches...both sides and one bottom of the nightstand drawer latches broke on our last trip...The good news...they had them in stock...the bad news $15.00per each...over $50 with tax. WHAT A RIP OFF!!!!
Anyone know where I can find the replacement latches for my 01 Dynasty at a reasonable price??????

I'm not exactly sure which latches you have, since I have a HR*, and there is a latch designated as an HR latch. I've ordered many parts such as those from www.RVPartsOutlet.com. Their shipping prices aren't the best but they do make up for it in lower parts prices.

I'm shopping them and www.PPLMotorhomes.com this week for my Carefree awning replacement tension springs.

Well, if it is those plastic units made by SouthCo, I have been seeing them on eBay.

Found them at a resonable price:

tweetys.com....

You can buy the whole latch, or just the part that, in my case, had broken!

Love the internet!!!

teofff,

You're talking about these, right?

If so, here's the link at Tweety's. I've been looking for them, myself. Thanks.

I have repaired 5 of these latches. After seeing the prices they are asking, I guess I will continue repairing them. The latch part breaks at the screw holes. I super-glue them back together and reinstall. I believe the reason they break at the mounting holes is because they were screwed in too tightly. I have not had any failures on the ones I have repaied.

I didn't find 'em. Teofff did, and I'm glad because I needed 'em too. Just ordered 6 sets.

But a picture's worth 1000 words, as they say. ...and so easy to do in this forum.
