Door Latch, Overhead Console
Freightliner

The overhead console door latch is a critical capture mechanism that secures the console's interior compartments during motion, preventing accidental opening when the vehicle is in transit. Constructed from a tough carbon colored body with nylon components, this latch combines rigidity with some flexibility to absorb minor impacts without permanent deformation. The design emphasizes a clean engagement every time you close the lid, ensuring the storage doors remain closed until intentionally released. By resisting environmental exposure and maintaining consistent actuation force, it reduces wear on striker and hinge hardware, extending service life between replacements. It also contributes to cabin organization by keeping loose items from scattering during braking, acceleration, or sudden stops. Installation is straightforward, and the latch tolerances are tuned to align with existing mounting points for a seamless, rattle free fit. Source One Parts Center.
