About this model
The old window tilt latches were breaking so I ordered a couple replacements from a local big-box store. I soon discovered that I needed several more than I originally anticipated so I thought it would be a fun project to replicate them. There is a Left and a Right striker but the shell portion is the same for either side. You will need a small coil spring - kinda like the ones in retracable pens. I was able to reuse the springs from the old original latches.I printed these with ABS because they will be subjected to significant sunlight and heat.
