Hello all,
I was looking for the latch that goes to the vacuum cabinet (on the models that have the OEM vacuum). Does anybody have any information on where parts for that could be obtained? It is not an easy one to find, or might even be impossible to find as I have not had an luck so far. The plastic part that attaches to the wood door on ours is partially broken causing it to open by itself occasionally. Thank you as always!

My vacuum cabinet had the same latch as all the other cabinets.
I may double up some though if needed.
1977 Kingsley 455 as stock as it gets except lots of Ragusa parts

A little more expensive, but really nice (to open the cupboard door you just press on it and it pops free from the catch).
Those look like the exact one! Thank you for the information. I will take a look and post back what I find here as well.
