Upgrade: Lockable Latch Conversion Kit for Your JD Air Tip Up Canopy Latch

Upgrade Your Current JD Air Tip Up Canopy Latch to the New Lockable Version for the RV-6(A), RV-7(A), RV-9(A), RV-14(A)

NEW: Optional Keyed Cam Lock* Add-on now available!

NEW: Forming tool to help you match your handle to your RV-14's exterior curvature.

The latch is designed for all Van's Side by Side Tip Up Canopy Aircraft. 

• This product is for customers who already own a non-lockable JD Air latch and wish to upgrade.
• You have the option for purchasing just the main locking part or both latch pieces for a perfect color match or to match condition.
• Note: Our anodizing is highly consistent; however, we cannot guarantee an exact color match to parts from different batches. To ensure a perfect match, we recommend purchasing both latch components together.
• Complete the system: This upgrade provides the handle housing with the pre-machined lock slot. You can now select the optional Keyed Cam Lock add-on to receive the matching cylinder, cam, and two keys.
• Reuse your existing handle hardware and spring; and download the installation instructions below.

*Note on Keyed Lock Option:
These are custom keys that will require specific key codes. JDAir recommends you have additional keys cut in the event you lose your main key. JDAir will not keep spare key codes available to unlock your cam should yours become lost.
