Don't let thieves steal your cargo or tailgate. Add security for your valuables with this keyed, steel tailgate lock that installs under your vehicle's OEM handle. This custom lock is perfect for use with tonneau covers and camper shells.The print directions are a bit vague but I pulled up a video on youtube and it made sense. It is REAL easy to install but I left the bezel on my tailgate and was able to install it without any modifications. I have to push in on the handle to get the lock to turn but it's not a big deal, just snug. It's a good product, hopefully it will deflect any bad guys.
Installation was straightforward. It was a breeze.. People take tailgates around here, especially OBS Trucks. Not any more.
I purchased the tailgate lock for my 1991 Chevy 1500. The directions state you need remove the tailgate bezel but I found that made the installation more difficult. The tabs on those bezels like to break so you're better off leaving the bezel in place. I removed the bezel but couldn't get it back in with the lock in place, regardless how lose the lock was. So I removed the lock and reinstalled the bezel. I installed the lock next but the bolt holes wouldn't line up. A little bit of the inside of the bezel needed to be ground off with a dremel tool so the lock would fit properly and the bolt could be inserted. All in all it looks sturdy and the cost is a cheaper than a new tailgate. I'm happy with my purchase.
real happy with tailgate lock. easy to install and looks good with the original handle Recommend this company
