Part: Checks and maintenance

Video tutorial

In this video, see how to replace the lock on an old GIVI top box: start by removing the old lock using a cross-head screwdriver. You can find the complete lock on eBay with code 313627077909 for £23.00 plus £7.00 shipping; if you only need the replacement parts, as our YouTube friend did, you can find them on eBay with code 272495668798 for £10.00 plus £7.50 shipping.

In this case, follow the very simple instructions to change just the lock cylinder using a pair of curved pliers and making a few minor adjustments. Refit the closing hook and the O-ring.

Install the lock on the top box, tightening the screw securely. Ensure everything functions correctly.
