Can I use the 26-188W to replace the 26-078 and 26-079?
Hi, it seems that 26-078 and 26-079 tilt latches would replace the current ones I have. However, I am tired of them breaking all the time. The 26-188W seems to have the same exact dimensions but made of metal. Of to use 26-188W instead of 26-078?

Trying to determine if I need the 15-015 shoe or the 15-046. Taking measurement is hard to tell. However, the existing shoes have the blue center piece. Does that mean I should go with the 15-015?
