Expert Reply:
Thule tells me that the latch you referenced is an acceptable replacement for newer models of the X Cargo. We have other customers who have used the # 03347 latch as a replacement on their X Cargo boxes (see photo), and it has worked just fine.
Since your box is a little older, and appears to have used the metal latches, you might need to relocate the mounting holes for the latch, but other than that, the latch should work perfectly for you.
