Ah, forgot to mention I had success with the Wixom locks. Got a bunch
of keys from the locksmith, some PB Blaster from Cam, and went to work.
Ground the key here and there and eventually got it to work consistently
in both bags. Left bag needed quite a bit of PB Blaster but she freed
up. I had just bought a set of Wixom locks with keys off of ebay a day
or 2 ago, not the same locks but the keys looked the same as what I
needed. Will see if they work any better than my home made jobs.

Also installed some rubber on the VR bracket, used the door trim stuff
for the top, sliced open a black fuel line for the bottom (couldn't get
enough space to work the door trim piece on the bottom).

It' all good.
