Review: Not the stubby handle version, but parts are interchangeable - Works well, but it would be much better if they listed in the description that it will not fit caps that require the stubby handle to clear the tailgate lip, and better still if they offered that version and linked to it. I couldn't find it on here. My Dad lost the keys to his new cap, and since I couldn't find the key code and this lock was only a couple bucks more than just the keys cut to code, I ordered this. I'd swapped them out before so was expecting an easy swap. Unfortunately the handle was too long. Fortunately thanks to a Youtube video on rebuilding these locks that I remembered from when I had one that was stuck, I was able to swap out the cylinders. If you have a good set of snap ring pliers, it's a pretty easy job. The obly issue I had was it was working hard after the swap, but it was because I had used the new back with the old front/handle part. Once I switched the backs, it worked great. The snap rings were a pain because I opted for a $5 pair of hft pliers that worked, but poorly. Without them it was impossible. So in a pinch the parts of this handle are interchangeable with the stubby model. I almost took off a star for no mention of the stubby handle incompatibility, but they do have super detailed drawings with every measurement imaginable, so I opted for a full 5 stars because it works great and is as described. Review: Locking handle for ARE pickup topper. Easy install, perfect fit. - 2 minute install. Exact replacement. desertcart ordering process should include a provision to custom select a key/lock number. If this function exists, I couldnt find it. I wanted a key 0004 but received 0005. Works fine, just an extra key on key ring. ## Features - For ARE Brand Camper Shells Rear Door. Turns Clockwise.
