Its not easy to get to the GFC mounting hardware…would require a small socket wrench to loosen. I suppose someone could take bolt cutters to the padlock but that also takes time and would be somewhat obvious to onlookers. Same for taking a saw to the rubber latch body.
If you don’t feel the need to lock the tent, then this product is not for you.
Nice simple solution…if you can keep the padlock from rattling and beating up the extrusions.
Wow super clean! Best I have seen yet for sure.
That’s how GFC is now serializing the campers. Hopefully they can add that on the prior campers as promised:
I drilled a new hole specifically for the lock. You’ll see both the lock and gfc pin in the photo. 
I picked up my Gofast camper last week and noted the tent latch already had pre-drilled holes! I was then able to use a trailer coupler latch lock (right diameter). I did have to use a dremel to cut off the excess locking shaft but I think this is going to work for me.
The only downside is each lock has its own key…oh well, I don’t mind carrying an extra key.
Where did they promise this? They’re charging $50 to do this now for older campers
Definitely seems like the quoted post does acknowledge that the serialized part can be added retroactively, but doesn’t seem to imply it would be at no cost.
Looks like you cut the longer length pin to where it just sits at the edge of the lock, I’ll drink a beer in your honor tonight!
I did this same setup, thanks for posting your solution!
I’m pretty sure I found this somewhere in the forum, I took out one of the spring pins, enlarged the hole slightly and have used a Curt 23520 Trailer Tongue Coupler Lock (I added a couple rubber washers from the hardware store to tighten it up a bit).
If you leave the locks on and proceed to open up the side panels, it does not hit.
If this was aimed at me, I just had to slightly enlarge the hole left from removing the spring pin. No additional hole drilled, and can reinstall the spring pin later if I want.
Thanks for linking the lock. Best solution IMO and it looks likes its part of the camper! Holes are pre-drilled on the newer V2’s, so all you need to do is cut down the lock pin.
Thought I’d share a fail -
On a happier note, Zoro has the Reese Towpower lock for $11.
I did this , had to drill my own not a big deal fit like a glove no issues whatsoever I don’t have to lock it all the time I think that would be kind of a hassle but it’s the best solution I’ve seen so far thanks.
FYI, GFC sells them at their location during the install.
