Dorman - OE Solutions Hood Latch Assembly P/N:820-011
Get your hood opening and latching the way it should with the Dorman hood latch, part number 820-305, a direct-fit replacement that holds the hood securely closed and lets it release when you open it. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2007-2013 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2007-2014 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and 2007-2013 GMC Sierra 1500. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list of applications.
If your hood no longer opens or closes properly and a worn or failed latch is the cause, this Dorman unit replaces it. It is designed to match the original equipment latch in both fit and operation.
Signs a hood latch may need replacing include a hood that won't release, won't stay latched, or needs repeated slams to close. A stretched or broken release cable can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing parts.
