As a result of the broken hatch window seen in this thread:

I found a donor hatch from a 79 Fairmont wagon in the local yards. When I pulled it I immediately noticed the different locking mechanism the fairmont had vs my LTD.
The LTD had the post style striker/latch (like the Mustangs) and the fairmont has the small hoop style latch.
Before I find out the hard way, anyone know if the hatch mounted latches can be swapped from one hatch to another?
