Pop Top Lock.

Post by TimothySummer » Fri Jul 26, 2019 12:59 pm

Good Afternoon,

Im desperately searching for a replacement lock or set of locks for my pop top.

I have a 2000 Bongo with the side opening pop top, where one of the lock pins has miraculously fallen out an Is lost.

Ive had a little call around but to no avail so hoping someone here may be able to locate one or a set?

Any help would be much appreciated.

All the best

Tim

You guys are my knights in shining armor ! Thank you .

I even called Bongospares to explain my issue and they said they were after market products an I would have to search eBay for them. Which I had done before. Forum has pulled through !

Im guessing they’re all same size or is there a specific one per top? It was JAL who did the conversion.

Thanks for the great welcome 🙏
