Hi,
does anyone know if there is a good alternative bonnet lock which will fit the Sag ?
I've had two brokwn locks now, each time the small pin/bar being broken, so wondered if there was anything better.
Ideally something which doesn't require the bonnet modifying.

My problem isn't with them coming undone but with the actual pin breaking.
There has to be a much nicer solution.

Thanks for the links.
I like the look of the push button quick release. Will have to investigate this further.

Thanks Ken,

I'm waiting for someone to phone me back about the original locks and also looking at replacing the broken pin with something else but I'll give those you've linked to a go if I get stuck.

mk1fan, I was trying to find a solution which didn't need the bonnet modifying.

JLF, I've bought a set you linked to. The fact they're a proper lock and can't turn without the key will stop them coming undone on their own. Only problem is the body diameter is a little larger than the original lock so they don't fit through the hole in the bonnet so that'll have to be increased slightly. Same with the chrome disc on top of the bonnet. I'll get there eventually.
