Vent window latch rebuild???? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**nlped** · 08-14-2009, 08:37 PM

Does someone sell a "rebuild" kit for the stock vent window latch? I would like to avoid having to purchase a completely new latch assembly if there is a price effective alternative. HELP, I have replaced the door window weatherstripping including the vent windows and the only thing that seems to still cause wind noise is the passenger side vent window latch.

Cheers.

Ed

If you just want the handle that latches the vent window closed, $20 each side.

^^^Thanks for the link. I thought they would cost more.

most of the time the stud the handle is mounted on comes loose and eggs out the hole on the vent window and that is totally useless..
