Coastal 3300 window hardware advice

Didn't see a perfect spot for this, so posting here. Our family's 1997 Wellcraft Coastal 3300 needs new windshield latches and we're stumped. Has anyone replaced those conical twist-down ones before with success?

You might want to check out Boat Outfitters they carry OEM style Wellcraft parts and might have what you need. If not, bringing one latch to a marine hardware shop could help find a close match.

Will start with a search on the Boat Outfitters site and a trip to my local shop is a great backup plan. Have you personally had good results with the fit and finish of the parts from Boat Outfitters?

Yeah, I've ordered from them a few times and the fit was pretty close to factory. Before anything though make sure you're getting the correct measurements! What a waste if not.

I spent some time on the Boat Outfitters website with my calipers to be certain of the measurements. I found what looks to be the correct latch and have an order in with them now.
