Templates

Thunderbolt offers downloadable templates designed for a wide range of vehicles, primarily based on late-model vans.

Lock Conversion Relays (LCRs)

Many Ford vans are at risk of theft through a simple method: a thief breaks the front window, opens the door, and presses the unlock button to gain access to the cargo area. If your van is vulnerable to this tactic, Thunderbolt Locks offers a reliable solution with our Lock Conversion Relays. Once installed, these relays ensure that the unlock button in the cab only functions when the key is in the ignition, adding an extra layer of security to protect your valuable cargo. Watch the videos below to learn more.

NOTE: We suggest ordering (2) LCRs for Ford Tranist Vans which will get installed at each cab door latch.
