Product should work with every packout box with the same designed release latch style, I just have not confirmed all of them yet. The ones listed are the ones I have physically tried and confirmed myself.
MODIFICATION - Notch back side of release latch
Take a flat head screwdriver or flat scraper tool and get between the black release and the red tool box body where you place your finger and lift to release the packout from its base. The ridge around the finger hole is what's holding the release latch in place. Once you have something between the latch and the toolbox, take a blunt punch and hammer and tap the black release down and out of the toolbox.
Once removed, there are plastic ribbing on the back of the release from the plastic injection molding. Trim it out following the ribbing on the backside. When you see it, it will be obvious where to trim.
With the ammo can / small cooler boxes, you can either notch it out like described above or you can measure and drill a hole through the bottom up and then square off the corners of the drilled hole to match the lock striker.
