I  ordered the latch from Camelback in Phoenix, AZ for $30.40. a bit
steep but  I didn't want any used parts in there. I have a well used
part, and it's  toast. This is one of those cases where new parts are in
order. Don't want  to have to deal with a wornout part from another van.

    John, I've been down this road before.  You'll  be happy you ordered a
new one.  They have been "improved" in design.   You'll see what I mean when you
get it.  Door will not pop open any longer  after you install the new lock !
