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.

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

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.
