    Yes. I got those exact ones. Be careful with the pins. Squeeze them in with vice grips or something. I broke one side of the bracket trying to tap them in.

    I pressed the roll pins in with a small "C" clamp and socket.

    This advice is solid. There was nothing wrong with mine, and ... here's what happened to my perfectly healthy latches while replacing the pivot

    I'd add to @Aerindel's advice, and tell you this:
    • If your current latch isn't broke DO NOT replace those arms, there is NO benefit to replacing them (proof the scAmazon part is exact same here, some advertise this as a "wind noise fix" but it IS NOT)
    • If you must replace...
    • Remove the door panel
    • Remove the latch completely
    • Work on the latch OUTSIDE the truck, on a work bench
    • Reinstall
    While I was able to get my passenger side done while in the truck, you clearly see what happened to me on the passenger side. It's just a PITA to get those damn pins in

    If you need to replace your entire assembly, it's actually not too spendy. Here's the part numbers:

    Vent window latch left: 62920-34012-XX
    Vent window latch right: 62910-34012-XX
    Where "XX" refers to your trim color. Like, my interior is charcoal grey, thus "B1" is the color code so my latch assemblieses are 62910-34012-B1 and 62910-34012-B1 respectively. FULL LIST OF PART NUMBERS BY COLOR HERE. And a note, the letter in parenthesis like (L) or (J) after the part number tells you the country of origin.

    Same here - lube and press, easy install. Both sides about 15 minutes and done.
