  • Sliding window latch

    Our 2017 2150RB has a broken latch on the bathroom window. The latches in my RV have a single mounting screw, centered on the latch. I find several online that have two mounting screws, but nothing that matches to original Lippert latch. Has anyone tried one of these two screw latches? I assume they will work, but new holes would need to get drilled. Even better, does someone know where could get the OEM style latch? I have checked the GD and Lippert websites, but haven't found anything.

    Thanks,
    Steve

    Can you post a picture of the latch please? Might help with someone chiming in on the parts.

    More than likely the windows are supplied by LCI and a call to them may yield the proper part.

      Worst case is go to you local hardware store and get a wood dowel and cut it ti length to hold the window closed (compression fit). Put a small eye screw into it to be able to get it in and out,

          Wow, you're not kidding, searching for that Lipper part is quite the challenge. I did find this one website that looks close, but who knows if it will actually work. Please note, that website doesn't seem to use HTTPS, so please be careful if you decide to order from there. Might be better to call the company directly.

            Motosteve61 -- definitely call Lippert directly. Contact info here: https://support.lci1.com/contact

                  Thanks everyone for the help. I contacted Grand Design and they sent me the part number. They had the part for $5.99, which is very reasonable. They did include the Lippert part number in their replay and I I found the part there as well. It was cheaper from GD, so I just ordered two.
