Replacing them is really easy. You tap the old ones out with a punch, nail or something similar. Then tap the new latches in, making sure that they are oriented the correct way. Yes there is a wrong way to put them in. The holes in the latches are just a smidge smaller, so it will feel like they don't want to go in. Remember be careful, there is glass close by.
Just a friendly bump. C'mon you guys who missed out on the buy last time! If your kids haven't broken your window latches yet, either their friends will, or your wife will! Get your orders in to Josh so he can make up sets and I can install them before someone breaks into my truck!
Josh, are we stuck on 14? How many do you need to get underway?>

Josh, I sent you an email the other day asking to get in on the latches, although I never heard back. It was sent to the same addy as your PayPal account.
I'd like to get in on these. I'll send payment for my "pre order" this evening.

Yeah both of mine broke as well when two of my friends decided to push on the window when opening it. I went to my local Toyota Dealership in July 2006 paid $61.11 for both with tax and had them in my possession the following week. Yes I know it a poor design. and I rarely use. When I do you them I open them very slowly becasue I don't want to pay for them all over again.
