2002-2006 Avalanche-new lock system for hardtops
« on: March 11, 2011, 06:54:20 PM »
Hello! Have you had your tops stolen? If not beware, they are a hot item for theft, I know, because mine were stolen, and I had the tailgate locked! In fact I have had nearly $10,000 in damages and stolen property in the last 90 days! I researched, and found nothing out there to remedy theft.
I got mad as hell, and have now invented a new lock system I will be putting on the market within the next 10 days,  I am working on a lock system for the 2007-current models as well. I have installed the first proto-type on my personal vehicle, and I am excited and pleased with the finished product! Thanks for checking this out, I look forward to answering any questions you may have! I will post some pics in the next few days, stay in touch!

There seems to be a big rash of that in Tx. One member has a pretty creative system on his using a bed frame rail along with a couple of padlocks. It'll be interesting to see pix of this mod you've come up with.

WHERE IT REALLY IS ABOUT THE FRIENDS AND AVY'S, AND NOT THE ALMIGHTY ADVERTISING DOLLAR!

Either that or he has something he wants to sell and not become a sponsor. I will me modding my #3 panels like you did this spring though once the foot heals. Both panels are sagging. Not leaking any but why let them get any worse.

Sorry for the delay guys, I am still in the process of putting the finishing touches on the AvaLock. Didit, yours looks fine, mine is much simpler and much cleaner looking, respectfully. I will not post an unfinished product, or one that is not truly effective! Please be patient and watch this site, I will post pics as soon as possible, thanks all,
