Kelly, it may be something like that.

jim that’s the glovebox latch. I’ve thought about using that and making it work but I think it’s be a PITA to get to work right. I’m kinda liking the billet eddie Marine complete package style if I can find one. That would look nice.
Tank, here is the latch I have on mine. I'm not sure what the Cafe's came with, but if you don't have any luck with Eddie Marine. You might check this option out with West Coast Offshore.

If that’s the latch you have Phil should have those.
Same pop up, turn to unlatch that’s in the cabin/cooler/glove box door.

so, turns out the perko latch jim posted is the wrong one. But while I was figuring that out bencini231 (Chris) on here reached out to me and said he had a door and latch in his garage. Text me a pic and low and behold not only is it the correct latch and door it’s custom painted and matches our boat colors. Worked out a price and he’s gonna ship it out. Power of OSO comes through again. Thanks Chris!
