Default Latch for Rear Window Tray

Does anyone out there have a extra/used latch for the rear window tray ('68 to '72 removable rear window storage)? Vendor's think they are made from gold, so I'm searching for a slightly more "cost effective" solution.

My window tray latch resembles the latch that is used for the rear compartments. Might be the same one?

Not sure about the latches mentioned above, but for a '69 the one in the AIM is a single piece of spring steel that simply catches the edge of the tray. It has a handle on it so it can be pulled forward and allow the tray to drop down. Is this unique to '69's?
