Pictures of sliding side window latch mechanism?
I have decided that I am going to sell the set that I have but I am hoping to get some pictures of the original latching mechanisms so I can try and come up with something that will work for whomever buys them. Mine are missing altogether so any pictures would be appreciated.

Re: Pictures of sliding side window latch mechanism?
Which style slider? Single pane or double pane?

Re: Pictures of sliding side window latch mechanism?
I honestly don't know the difference . I spend most of my time in the square body section

Re: Pictures of sliding side window latch mechanism?
I have some double pane. I believe they are similar to the rear window on the trucks. I’ll try to get a picture tomorrow.

Re: Pictures of sliding side window latch mechanism?
Awesome! It does look a lot like a pick up latch. Mine is actually single pane.

Re: Pictures of sliding side window latch mechanism?
I wouldn’t mind having a single pane set. The set I have are nos. Some day I’ll get a chance to install them. When you do sell your set let me know.

Re: Pictures of sliding side window latch mechanism?
I don’t have a photo off hand but if I recall the single pane examples used a spring loaded latch that was held in place with double stick tape and would grab the metal upright on the fixed pane. Latch and pull.

Re: Pictures of sliding side window latch mechanism?
I am just trying to figure it out as I think there must be something on early motorhomes or conversion vans that would work

Re: Pictures of sliding side window latch mechanism?
Contact Mark at Motor City K5 - just a guess but maybe he would have a source.

Re: Pictures of sliding side window latch mechanism?
Bought mine on Amazon. Just need to shave down small tabs to be able to glue to glass

Re: Pictures of sliding side window latch mechanism?
They should have a vertical bar. Here are photos of mine. You can see where the handle goes glued to glass.
