Question:
Hi, I have the old style latches in the compartment in the front of my 5th wheel underneath my pin box area. It has 2 twist non-locking latches on each side of the door and a locking latch in the middle. I would like to replace them with slam lock latches. What latches would you recommend? Is there any instructions available that I could look at on line? I have a Coachman Chaparral 370FL 5th wheel.

Expert Reply:
It sounds like you are talking about baggage door latches, and for that I recommend the Lippert Components Standard Baggage Door Latch Kit # LC317649.
While this kit (like all the others) does not have instructions available, it does come with everything needed for the install to make it simple, though you may need the Lippert Components Standard Baggage Door Mounting Plate # LC227099 if you do not have a mounting plate.
