2014 touring bag latches

Hey all. I've been in the process of putting some stripped down 2014 ultra hard bags together. I am stumped at the latching mechanism. I believe Ihave all of the parts to do it, but seem to be stuck because I have no pictures to go off of and all the online videos I've found just talk about how to take the overall structure apart. Anyone have a good how-to thread to put the latching system together from scratch?

Have that and I appreciate the help. But it doesn't go deep into the locking mechanisms. Thanks for the effort though

As in, the cylinder lock? or the cabling that locks the lid?

I think all of them. I have the main piece that has the cabling runs through. Also have two other plastic pieces that screw into the unit. And the party the latch connects into. Just can't figure out how the latch gets the components to move.

Thanks a bunch for those last diagrams. They didn't answer my question, but I realized yesterday what I was looking for. The latch area specifically has 3 extra pieces, one of which I had set aside a week ago and forgot was there. So all fixed!

Those last images were helpful for the screws though!
