My 55.2 did not have the hood latch on it when i got it, I was able to buy one from another stovebolter, but Idon't see on my front end where the ltch bolts to. It only has 2 bolts about 3 inches apart to fasten it. Does someone have a pic of thiers they can post for me or just tell me what panel or piece it bolts to? Thank you in advance. Brian
