Cocktail top latch question

I bought 2 of these for my cocktail cab. Well, where do these mount? On the inside of the cabinet?
If so, how do I latch/unlatch the thing once the top is closed. Are you supposed to reach through the coin door? Of course I didn't plan on having a coin-door at all so this may be a problem!
thanks

yes, on inside
yes, through coin door
If you don't want a coin door just don't use latches. The weight of the monitor is enough to keep the cab closed in a home environment

ack! thanks for the quick reply... I'll most likely just leave the latches out of the picture. Either that or go ahead and install a coin door. hmmmm. Dont wanna spend $90!

do you guys have any other creative suggestions on how I can latch the top down, avoiding a coin-door installation?
JoyMonkey:
You could use a some small angle brackets under the rim of the cocktail's top. On a Midway style cocktail, they're pretty easy to hide (one either side of each control panel). Just screw 'em in and wa-la!
On another note, is there another name for that kind of latch? Is it the kind of thing that I could find in Home Depot or McMaster?
