I bought the repop hatch from Brothers a few years ago. I'm satisfied with it. My big problem was that when my old hatch went ( handle caught on some high barbed wire in the desert) the guts /hardware went all over the place. What wasn't busted was lost. So I had to go on this big safari to round up the hatch operating system pieces. If your guts and glass are intact, the swap is pretty straightforward. Most of the latch mounting holes had t/nuts in the right places. A new window gasket is a good idea if your OEM rubber is 30+ years old.
