Closet Door Latch

Just got home from our trip to Colorado and one of the plastic door latches broke. I'm not sure where to find a replacement but there must be a better way to keep the doors closed. Anyone have any ideas?

Jim, I did a write up on this in March. http://www.irv2.com/forums/f116/fron...ea-240219.html

If you are insistent on using the old plastic latch, I have one. I see them in the RV parts stores from time to time. Usually what makes them fail is: someone sliding the doors too fast into the latch or you didn't get the door latched on the last stop!!!! The door bangs into the latch hard and that's it! I hated the sharp corners. Always scratching my hand. rockin'

Tom, I should have known you had already posted something on this. I just don't remember seeing this but then again, I just had another birthday. Thanks, Burglabar it is. I honestly think the wife forgot to close her side of the closet but I took the blame like a good husband should.
