Not too long ago, i installed new locks on my generator bay and fresh water door. I bought a set of 4 cam locks that all used the same key. Sorry, I don't remember where I bought them from. However, you can find them online at many of the RV parts supply companies or even Amazon.

Search for...
Cam Locks,
or
RV storage bay door locks,

You'll need to measure your present locks and order some with the same dimensions. I used the latch bars from my old locks on the new lock barrels. Works well.

Alternately, I replaced just the mechanics on mine with a cheap cam lock from Ace. I was concerned about the difficulty of replacing the whole lock, but it sounds like Kentuckian was able to do it without a problem.
