Has anyone broken the screen door latch on their '02? After a little searching, I found the latch from Camper's Choice for $7.95.
Mod#H242. I don't know what years CC used this same latch but it was after '01.

Don,

That is a great price, we paid $20 at Lazy Days and that was for the latch that Monoco uses which also fits CC. They also had the exact latch the CC uses and that was $60 but the parts clerk told me about the Monoco latch. We have broken ours twice so I carry a spare.

Ooooops, I guess I should not mention the $3.29 I paid for an off the shelf screen door latch at a local hardware store in Portland, Oregon. They were so cheap that I'm carrying two extras for our '01 Intrigue #11219. I guess the Oil companies are not the only orgainzations that will charge what the market will "bare"..

Ouch! Did you get kissed? I can't believe that a plastic latch would be 60 bucks! Don't want to know what CC would charge. I took the latch off the coach and on the backside was the mfg name. It was local but I found their web site and the latch was listed. I called them but they do not sell to Joe Consumer. They told me to contact Camper's Choice so I did. Received them in the mail yesterday along with a catalog and they are listed in it.

If memory serves me, I don't think the screen door latch on the '01 and '02 Intrigues are the same. I think there was a change in the door set starting with '02. I think there has been a change starting with '02 also.

Don,

The first 2001 screen doors do not have a plastic handle. It looks like a steel casting that is crome plated. When I forget to lock it into the main door and close the door the casting cracks under the pressure of the door. I couldn't find it at the local stores but we don,t live in a big area.
