The Bauer Products RV Baggage Door Slam Latch, # BA57FR is designed to replace the Bauer Products RV Baggage Door Slam Latch BP-20.

It will also replace the Fastec (FIC) 30205.

Global Link BLL-40101-2006 and BLL-50101-2006.

If your latch that needs replaced has a matching part number to any of the above, this will be a direct replacement.

If you also need to replace the mounting plate, you will need the Global Link Mounting Plate for Baggage Door Slam Latch, # 295-000017.

please look at the current latch you have installed to identify a manufacturer and part number. If it is one the parts listed above, then the Bauer Products, # BA57FR is what you need. If you identify a different part number, let us know as we have several other options to select from. Please note the attached video for installation of slam latch. It is not the same part number as listed here but similar and should provide a great visual for installation as most all slam latches will install similarly.

If you are unable to identify a part number, no worries. Simply remove the current latch and measure the cutout. Let us know what the measurements are we can easily identify a valid replacement to fit that cutout.
