2003 Dakota First got the OEM product . Didn't work. Won't lock. etrailer was very good with exchange to PopnLock. Took 5 mins to install. Works well. Will recommend.

It is a "pop" in type of installation; however, the instructions are quite inadequate. A couple of pics showing what the installed lock looks like from the inside of a tailgate would definitely have been helpful. Also, the installer needs to be advised not to close the tailgate once the batch bolts are out because the latch does not work then. I called the help desk during regular business hours and had to leave a message in hopes of getting a call back, but I figured it all out before the return call came in. It does appear to be an effective solution for those of us whose vehicles do not have factory installed locks on the tailgates.

30 minutes to install. great so far. Only improvement I would make would be some kind of steel support that would sit be hind the gates plastic handle. Seems you can break the handle pretty easily. I know it stays locked if you break handle, but would be nice if it could save the handle in that situation.

Unfortunately I have sold the vehicle so cannot give you a report as to how it is working now. It did everything I had hoped during the time I owned the vehicle.

A little difficult to install, could not tighten the main securing bolt as tight as would seem appropriate. If I did, the lock would not open. It works, just makes me wonder a bit.

Ask the Experts about this Pop and Lock Vehicle Locks
- How Does the Pop and Lock Tailgate Lock Work on a 2005 Dodge DakotaThe Pop and Lock tailgate lock # PAL3600 will offer more protection that other tailgate locks because it mounts in the housing of the handle so the lock cannot be popped out. The lock basically secures the passenger side latch from disengaging so the tailgate cannot be opened while locked.
view full answer... - Will the Bedliner Need to Be Removed for PAL3600 Installation for 2006 Mitsubishi RaiderYou will need to be able to access the three bolts on the inside of the tailgate that secure the handle to the tailgate. If you have a slide-in bedliner you will need to temporarily remove it to do this. If its a spray-on liner and you can access the bolts fine then you would obviously not need to remove the liner.
