Anyone know where I can get the quick release pins for the Luggage lids? This way I can quickly change from City, to the larger size lids. Iv'e seen them before, but can't seem to find them anywhere..
Thanks

The place that used to make them is no longer in business and might only respond to a group buy...I'd be interested.

I'd be interested, too, if there's a group buy.

The Kugler Klamps.
Says he'd consider a production run for a minimum of 12 pre-paid sets...

So what does one kit comprise (i.e., how many cases and/or lids are equipped by one kit)?

One kit takes care of two pairs of lids, e.g. sufficient to switch between City lids and regular lids...
Although if it were a special order, and you need enough parts for three pairs of lids, they may accommodate the request...alternatively you could split a set with someone who has the same issue.

I've written to Karl Kugler to see if he'd fill a one-off group buy order...and cost details...let's see if he replies.

They seem pretty inexpensive, and I'm getting tired of all the little nut/bolts when swapping lids. I'm in if we get enough together for a group buy.

This clamp kit really makes it super easy to change the lids. I have had them for three years and don't think twice about changing the lids to go grocery shopping. I would like a thrid set so I'll gladly split a set with someone.

Still wondering how many sets I'd need.
To be frank, I only have the regular cases (left and right sides). I'd like to get the city lids and then be able to swap the lids.
How many sets of the quick-release latches (i.e., how many kits or sets) would I need (seems like 1 or 2) to handle both left and right cases?
Thanks and continue to count me in for a set (or two, depending on how many I'll need).

DMM,
that would be 1 set to take care of two cases and four lids.

I will get a set too ... if anyone is willing to ship my set to UK (at my cost) and accepts Paypal.
I do not care what colour they are.
Cheers

If the original munufacturer does not want to get involved - is there an alternative product?
Cheers
