    Sliding Window Catch Aftermarket?

    Hi,

    I need several window catches for 110 (3 door)

    Part number MWC7648 and MWC7625

    These seem ridiculously expensive at $90 each. Does anyone have a workaround or alternative / aftermarket suggestion?

    Window Catch RH Right Hand Side for Land Rover Defender Drivers Side MWC7648

    Thanks in advance.

    the prices are over the top, the last link is genuine price.
    allmakes are round $60 each so a bit of a saving

    Do you need the entire catch, or is the square bit just snapped off? I replaced the plastic square bit in my back window catch with metal years ago, cost me nothing and hasn't broken like the plastic one used to do.

    Did you find a piece of metal that fitted? Or did you make one?

    It was so long ago, I do recall having to make something to fit, might have been just a matter of filing down some key steel or similar. If someone wanted something for the job now I could machine something easily enough, would just need the dimensions. I think it was just a matter of making a bit of rectangular rod the right size and screwing the thumb bit to it.
