Sorry mate, I cheated... I picked up two Kaymar arms secondhand (could not have made them for $50) that already had the latches on them. I had to modify the arms and make the receivers for the latches myself.

What you are looking for are called "over centre latches"

Try here http://www.conceptlatch.com.au/ or more likely here http://www.uesint.com/product/product.p ... tSubType=5
And you should be able to find a supplier close to you.

Hope this helps.
