interchangable t tops locks?

Hey I was wondering if you could change the type of locks on the t tops from say a pin type lock to a hook latch lock. If you can, how do you do it? I would really like to know.

1) Take the t-top off
2) Remove the plastic cover and handle
3) Swap the mechanical guts of em

If all else fails, just know the t-top glass section is only glued on to the latching part so you can use a fishline to get it off and glue it to the other t-top

Once ya open it up youll see they 'look' alot more complicated than they really are
