Changed out all the CH751 cargo door locks with tubular cam locks. Look good and greatly reduces the chance that someone will happen upon our unattended rig with a key that lets them get to our stuff without a struggle.

Just my 2 cents but most tubular locks can be opened with a cheap bic pen and such tutorials can be found on youtube...Scary what you can find on youtube these days.
Any lock, given enough time and an experienced thief, can be defeated. Those videos are mainly of pre-2005 tubular bicycle locks that were easily opened with a Bic style pen. Since 2005 the design was changed, making it much more time consuming to pick the tubular locks and this company sells Ace Tubular that are just that much harder to pick. I'll take my chances with these, rather than having thousands of people running around with a key that is known to open most RV cargo compartments.

Yes, it's a Blue Sea Systems PN 6006. I'm really happy with the outcome, and the outcome of the TV mount I put in this weekend too. It's a rocketfish mount from Best Buy
