Part was fine, but paying $6 to ship a $2 part, seem excessive.

Removed the 10 screws while blower was laying on its side on the table. Removed broken catch and installed into place insuring spring was seated properly. Made sure power switch toggle was hooked correctly into sliding switch (plastic piece that may have popped out of place when case halves were split). Replaced halves together and tightened screws back down to secure the case.

I laid the blower on the side to access 8 star screws that needs removed to separated the housing. The latch lays in a groove. It does have a spring on the bottom end. I simply lifted the latch out, put the spring on the new latch put it in place, snapped the housing back together and screwed it. A very easy task.
