LOL :lol: That was a picture taken at night on the old teardrop, and you're right... if you don't know what you're looking at, it's not real clear... Here's another picture taken in the daytime, this time on the new teardrop... It's how I keep the hatch closed...

Ok, I see it now. Not a bad idea. Certainly easier than some kind of handle/latch combo.

In that first photo, what is that latch called? I need to buy a few of those for a collapsable storage shed my brother-in-law wants to build. Thanks!
