Sedan/turbo 36 window catches

[Mr Googler]

Hi all

I'm trying to find replacement window catches.



I believe they are from a Citroen 2CV! I've tried online 2CV specialists but to no avail.

I spoke to Trend marine who only do stainless versions now at £40+ each.

Anyone got a source or secret stash

I sent them an email but heard nothing back. I'll try again

Trend used to do them in plastic.

I have the same catches in my boat and I bought a Stainless pair and the travel of the plunger in the plastic one is longer than the SS one.

Well, I never knew that! Perhaps get someone who speaks French to call them?

I think the site linked is iffy.

I ordered but wasn't asked for payment. It's a bit strange.

I have however ordered and paid for 4 from this company (via PayPal so happy with that)

Tico, the site said they only had 4 in stock. Postage is 12 euro too! I may well get away with just using 3 so will be happy to let you have one at cost. Cheaper than ordering one

I'll drop you a pm if I have one spare.

[Mr Googler]

could work if you can't get oe. That look a fair bit shorter so not sure the pin would stick out enough.

Thanks ... All sorted.
