Default ARG WTF is this?!

So Ive tried 3 different part numbers looking for that DAMN LATCH PUSHBUTTON and EVERY damn time they send me one of these. Im so frustrated with this damn thing! There is no way in hell Im paying $270 for the entire latch assembly either. Thats just ludacris.

Can anyone identify wtf this part is? I see NO WAY how it could be used for the damn push button due to the shaft on it. I hate GM I hate GM I hate GM!

No clue. Why not make some sort of latch yourself?

me either, lol. WHen ever I fab stuff up it just happens, i dont thing about it too much. Only advice i can give is take a long look at your top and just how you would latch it and make something that will work. If mine was broke i sure as hell would make something and let you guys know about it but its not broke yet
