Call taylor made, they do not still stock that year for the handles (80-89 I think), but the handles they have you can make them work, they have the paper work to show how to do it.

Look for someone parting one out. I have seen 2 or 3 recently.

If all else fails, you can have custom latches fabricated for a lot less than 700.00 each. Maybe under a hundred for all three.
