Cargo hatch locks - replacement
Another little annoyance on the "Toaster"... Several of the barrel-key locks on the cargo covers are either broken, damaged or cannot be opened.

Does anyone know of a source that still makes these?

rusty, that doesn't look anything like the locks on my Barth. ROTFLMAO

Mine don't have wheels.

I got mine (slightly different model) at ww.ecph.com. They were actually the cheapest I could find.

There seem to be at least three different designs used.

What I meant was when I clicked on the link you sent, there isn't a picture of a lock but of what looks like to me to be a rolling fluid capture system.

The old locks had sae threads ... The new ones are metric and the screws that come with the locks are to short... Take an old screw to the hardware store and get metric ones that length ....

Amazon got the picture wrong, but the description matches

You need #4 metric 1" screws,( the easyest length to find) Add a small washer at the head of the screw and you have a perfect fit.............Carl

The design I pictured has a shaft secured by a nut and starwasher - but another design has mounting bolts.

On my 1990, the new short screws worked on the locks that weren't on storage compartments: fuel, engine bay and I think one other.

88 yrs old ?... No wonder ...you're pre-metric !...I'm 62 and I have trouble with metric sizes and I don't see me getting any better at it...( that's why I own crescent wrenches )...and why I just took the old screws to the store to size them...
