I need to replace both the latches for my bed cover. I have part 68161086aa but it seems to only be for the driver side. It doesn't appear to fit both sides. Am I missing something or does anyone know the right side part number?
 
I don t have a OEM Ram cover but I looked up a few and found a diagram that shows the latch is only on one side. Are there two latches on your current cover? I have an aftermarket and have latches on both sides.

then there should be a right and left. Both are broken?

Both were. I just replaced the driver side. Here's a pic of both.

I just looked at a diagram and it looks like same latch for both sides what year is the truck ?
 
Sorry wrong cover ( me bad )
I hear you man, I was trying to help to but there are many different covers. Would be interesting if she could move that latch over to the other side, then we d know.
 
Doesn't install on the right side. Flipping it puts it insert on the wrong side of the track.
 
I did not know there was an OEM roll-up bed cover, I just learned something. I thought that OEM was either a hardcover or a Trifold design.
You could try the online Mopar site and type in your VIN, it might be of some help but I am not sure if the bed cover part diagrams will provide the answer you need, but it is worth a try and all you lose is some time.
