Don't let thieves steal your cargo or tailgate. This ABS plastic tailgate handle has a keyed, steel tailgate lock, and the lock cylinder can be keyed to match your truck key. This handle replaces OEM handle. Great for tonneaus or camper shells.
Features:
Replace your existing factory tailgate handle with this ABS plastic tailgate handle that has a built-in manual lock. And you won't have to carry any extra keys. The lock cylinder for this tailgate lock can be keyed to match your truck key using patented BOLT codeable technology. Simply insert the key in the lock and turn it clockwise until it stops turning. Then remove the key. It's as easy as that. Your key will now unlock your tailgate. Use the Pop & Lock with your truck-bed cover or camper shell whenever you need to lock up valuables in your truck bed
The Pop & Lock locking mechanism is made of sturdy, armored steel to resist tampering. The lock is raised slightly for convenient key access and to help prevent pinching. And the handle installs easily using basic tools - no welding or drilling is necessary. The custom design gives you a straight-from-the-factory look, and the black color complements any other black trim on your truck.
A new tailgate can cost you hundreds - the Pop & Lock saves you the cost and aggravation of replacing a stolen tailgate.

Secure, sturdy and reliable even at 0 deg F. Locks with the same key as the truck. I dont have a tailgate camera so I cant comment on that.

Lock has worked great for the past year. It feels a little loose inside but still works great. The color has faded from the original black to lighter grey but honestly, I expected that in the southern summers we have. Very happy with this product and will certainly purchase again.

I did have one issue with the locking device. It became stuck. I contacted etrailer and had a replacement within a week. Awesome customer service. Replacement has been fine for 10 months now. I believe the first one was damaged internally somehow and not the norm.
Do you have a question about this Tailgate Lock?
