Trakker With Cam Locks

[The Fitz]

Hi All,
I'm new to the world of XT1200Z. I'm looking at getting some panniers to match my GIVI Trakker TRK52 topbox. I'm thinking of getting a pair of TRK 33 panniers. My question is which is the newer version? The ones with the cam locks or the one s without the cam locks? And do both leak???

I had those on my v-strom for 40k miles - loved them, never leaked, very robust feeling to using them & the locks (unlike OEM Yamaha ones, haven't let me down - but the feel of the lock doesn't inspire confidence).

The newer ones are the one with clips on the sides for holding them closed while unlocked, I rode 100 miles on the motorway accidentally with them unlocked - those clips prevented me losing my luggage!

I think the 'clips on the sides' AKA cam locks help with the waterproofing. A mate of mine has the older ones without the side locks and said the screws are all rusty on the inside of the panniers.
