Default Noob looking for early wing/vent window lock

Just picked up a set of early doors with the wing/vent windows intact.

Before I swap the windows into my 93, the latch locks for these windows need to be repaired.

The local Jeep dealer found some part numbers 83504102 and 101 at 60 bucks a kit and none in inventory.

Any chance anyone knows where I might locate a set?

Thanks in advance

I get 90% of my old Jeep parts at a Junk Yard.

You might have some luck with these guys, since you have part numbers.

Thanks for your suggestions. Didn't think to check the Chrysler parts books.

The windows are pretty rare in the junk yards around here (N.Calif) so new is my next choice.

Maybe these latches will crossover to another model.

I'll let ya'll know

You could replace the vent glass with solid from a pre 96, as opposed to vent, which does leak over time.

Actually I'm replacing the solids with old school air conditioning.

Found the parts at chryslerdirect! Thanks for the link BlueXJ.
