FG1, would this box be suitable for your mounting method?

Is this not a worry?

QUICK RELEASE: This model is equipped with a quick release facility, so once the mounting plate is mounted on to your bike, to quick release the top box from the universal mounting plate, just push the red button at the front of the box to release it from it's plate, so it is so easy, which is a very useful function to have.

Sounds like it's not locked to the mounting plate so someone can just push the button & steal your top box + contents?

or is the button inside the locked box?

It must be locked on otherwise what is the point in having a key in the first place, will email the seller and check mind.

It is locked, key turns one way to release lid, other way to release entire box

L3nny, I cant see why it wouldn't work. Be carefull those two bars don't foul anything under the seat. I was carefull in positioning the bolts so that nothing was in the way when the seat was on.
