Trunk latch....

[cwhite123174]

Quick question. 2004 Yamaha Royal Star Venture Midnight. I noticed today that my trunk doesn't seem to shut square. It's not bad. My wife thinks I'm nuts for worrying about it but my question is if the latch itself that is inside the trunk on the bottom has an adjustment? I am afraid I will break the clips that hold the cover on so while I am asking, where can I find replacement ones if that should happen?

Another question is (Pardon my ignorance) the front cowl pc that covers half the air filter on both sides, 1 of mine seems loose and just tightening it doesn't help. It's as tight as it will go. I know it has a hex bolt, rubber grommet and a collar and I have found the parts online but $25 for those 3 pcs seems a little high but it is what it is I suppose. Any suggestions?

Thanks all.

My trunk lid seems to only latch on one side too. How did you fix it?

The top clip on my truck was missing a screw so when it was connecting to the latch it wasn't square when latching. I got another screw, and now it sits more square. I also popped the plastic clips off the cover of the latch mechanism and greased it up good. Mine latches much better now.

I think its ok to have alittle play in that front cowling, there were alot of folks who had that cowling replaced under warranty for cracking, It would crack from the one fastener outward.
