Lizzymit, We have replaced those POS plastic clips many times on our last 3 TT. Now we have a 5ver and guess what... On our last trip the factory installed clip snapped after about 50 cycles... They are junk, that's all there is to it, they are junk ! Just think how long a tempered aluminum or plain ole stainless steel latch would last. I am going to try the velcro trip to eliminate my PO agrivation, maybe you should too. I've wasted too much time and $ to go back to the plastic junk we are used too. JMHO. Tom
