My install (video) is for a 7, but in principle should be the same.
I also installed a lock, mostly to prevent nosy people….

Thanks Bjorn,
It seems like a nice smooth mechanism. So to open from the inside you push the forward lever forward which releases the aft lever, then pulling this opens the canopy?
Darwin from JD Air Parts. We have sold a bunch of these to all types of RV's but it is really popular with the 14 crowd. I've had discussions with Van's about the latch and I'm hoping we can offer it there in the future. It is a significant improvement over the stock latch. Also, I have a specific set of instructions for the RV14.
I have both Red and natural aluminum in stock. I can ship or bring some to Oshkosh.
Use Discount code AV2021 and put a note in if you want it brought to Oshkosh.

I’ve just fitted the excellent JDAir Latch to my RV14 … see the highlights here …
That’s a very satisfying click - like a BMW door closing versus a Toyota
Do you reckon you could use a short rivet in the centre hole and just file it down somewhat instead of drilling the hole in the handle?
