Thumbs up Convertable Latch broken how do i remove?

I purchased a new latch to replace my broken latch. But the button you push to open the latch has broken off.. now I cant open the latch to unscrew it from the top to replace it with the new one I bought. Anybody have an idea how to remove the latch?? so i can replace it??


Thanks

Its not the strikers that need replacement its the actual latch. The button fell off so I cant open it to acess the screws in the mechinism. Anyone have an idea how I can get the latch open to acess the screws for the latch>?

Use a screwdriver to push from the side and release the latch.

Open your other latch to see where to push.
