Default Pop out window latch

Hey guys,

one of of my pop out window latches has a busted spring, is the spring replaceable, what I mean is, do any of the vendors carry it, I can’t find what I’m looking for on the sites, but didn’t know if anyone has any experience with this, I hate to have to replace the whole latch for a busted spring.

thanks

Good for you ! ! At my local hardware, I found a bunch of those little screw-in metal disks with the rubber pads on the bottom that are used on the Vette to adjust the seat rake.

Turned out to be the same screw in adjusters that are used on furniture to level things out and prevent tilting on chairs and tables. Cheap as could be, worked out great.
