    purchase Seadoo GTI latches in bulk?

    Anyone know where I can buy the cone latches for a Seadoo GTI in bulk? I have 3 of these DPVs and I've lost a latch on each of them. I find $20 for a pair rather steep for these things.
    Or is there a "generic" version I could use?
    thanks

    -Patrick

    Thats a Joke Right?

    Try finding one of the other knock off manufactures, you can buy the whole scooter for $150, so the latches should be a lot cheaper, ebay has a lot of listings.

    Last time I looked on made in china .com there were over 40 manufactures of scooters that looked exactly like the Seadoo.

    Maybe not, but he might have got in trouble with his wife when she found out what he spent 3 grand on
