How Does the Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock # PAL8540 Key to a Vehicle Key

Published 10/23/2015

Question:

The box came in and it looks like I have all the parts, but there were no instructions in the box. That should not be an issue as I can follow the videos you have on the site. What my concern is..... It did not come with any keys. I know that I should be able to key it to my truck key. I tried ing my key and it does not work the lock. What do I need to do to get my key to work the lock? I want to install it this weekend, but want to make sure I can get it to work before I do. Please let me know what I can do. Thanks

The Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock # PAL8540 uses the same codeable lock core as the BOLT hitch locks.

All you have to do is insert your vehicle's key in the core and turn it as far as you can clockwise. Once this has been done the lock will be keyed to your vehicle. Check out the review video for more info that I attached.
