Nice Rig..My 08 bat compartment does not have a lock.. but let me warn you, the alarm works.. I have woke up the neighborhood about 2 times a month @ 3 AM when unplugging the chargers while getting ready to get on the road. Keep a starter key in your pocket..lol. Best of luck w/your new Cat. And like JohnM17 said, they will stop you at the gas station, boat ramp, restaurant and your driveway to ask you about it. Practice saying ” Thank You, I think she is a Beauty too”…..
