A drift is like a hole punch with a flat (not pointed) tip. If you look at
the latch carefully, you will see what looks like a tiny hole on the edge.
it goes from one side of the latch body to the other. inside there is a roll
pin. It's a pin made of flat metal which is rolled into a shape of a pin.
It's used to hold things such as the match and the adjustable armrests
on Vanagon seats.

Drifts look like this:
