Ahh, not sure if they are similar for the 57. The first latch is the bottom one the second latch is the big L shape piece on the top. My drivers side, the second latch doesn't engage leaving the door about 1/2" open. The passenger side works and I noticed this weekend it has a couple of shims behind it. Thinking I need to shim mine on the drivers side.
