    No, sorry. What part of my description needs clarification?

    Happy to help...

    MTVR key-locking outside door handles installation:

    The key-locking starter switch is a Cole-Hersee# 956-3125BX. We paid $24 with free shipping. And the fuel cap can be any 4" threaded (8 threads per inch) aluminum NON-vented key-locking fuel cap.

    MTVR key-locking outside door handles installation:

    My wife and I each have three keys for the MTVR- the door key, which works both doors, the starter key, and the fuel cap key. The battery switch padlock and the steering lock padlock are combo padlocks, so no keys there... I guess we will each have four keys, when we build our home on the back....

    MTVR key-locking outside door handles installation:

    They are completely different keys- there is no way for a locksmith to rekey Oshkosh keyed door handles to match a Cole-Hersee keyed starter switch.

    MTVR key-locking outside door handles installation:

    I was beginning to wonder if I was just wasting my time posting this thread. I have not seen anyone else on Steel Soldiers source and install key-locking door handles on their MTVR, so I thought it would be helpful. GovPlanet has sold over 300 MTVRs, so I thought it would be a popular thing. But...

    MTVR key-locking outside door handles installation:

    It's nice to be able to ditch the two chains, two locks, and two keys, in exchange for just one key that secures both doors better than all that other stuff ever did anyway...

    MTVR key-locking outside door handles installation:

    Once the old outside door handles were out, it was easy enough to clean off the old gasket material and install the new ones into their respective holes with the new retainers, washers, and nylock nuts supplied. The inside lock rods appeared to be inverted for shipment, so I flipped them...

    MTVR key-locking outside door handles installation:

    If you purchased a truck that was build with armor like mine was, or even if you have a truck that armor was added to after, keep in mind that they don't always remove all the armor- my truck still had several armor plates left in it, to include the armor plates that almost entirely block access...

    MTVR key-locking outside door handles installation:

    The passenger side was harder, because both of the larger bolts behind the inside door handle were mis-threaded. To get better access, especially to the bottom one, I had to remove the passenger seat box again...and I hate each and every one of those 19 bolts. If you had a long transmission...

    MTVR key-locking outside door handles installation:

    The driver's side was pretty easy to remove- there are two linkage cover pieces, each retained with two small bolts. The inside door handle then comes out, after popping off the latch rod at the top and removing the four mounting bolts (two small ones in the door jamb, and two larger ones in...

    Had a break in the weather, and got them installed today. No more chaining up the doors!

    MTVR key-locking outside door handles installation:

    I may cross-post this to other applicable thread(s), but I thought it was worthy of it's own thread in and of itself. Some time back, I contacted Oshkosh Defense, and was eventually able to obtain the correct part numbers for key-locking outside door handles for the MTVR, #3506900 for the left...
