2003 ram. Secondary hood latch fell out. I see replacements online. I can putvmine back in place but NO idea how/what keeps it in place. Can anybody tell me and/or post pictures of a non broken assembled latch. I think something at the bottom of the grill is suppose to hold it in place.

Thanks

Both ends of the secondary latch. Hopefully i can figure out how it stays in place from the pictures. Mine is on the front floor board now. I figured out how it goes, but not how it stays in place.

The latch you have to release from outside the truck after you pull the under dash lever.

The third pic is the arm that comes from bottom of grill up to latch.
First pic, the bar on the left is the one that goes up to latch.
