Reviews for BOLT 7026128 Hood Lock for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler JK

Absolutely love this lock. Keeps the hood from vibrating on the highway as well as secures the engine compartment. I really like that there is no special key. You use your ignition key.

Helps secure engine compartment

So far so good. Quick service. And good fitting parts.

Works great. Uses 1/4" rivets though, which is larger than normal. I didn't want to have 2 rivet guns (that never get used) so I bent a wrench to get inside the rail and mounted it with hardware.

Works like it should. Install was a breeze with a rivet tool. Small price to pay for piece of mind.

This lock has been installed for about a year now and it works and looks like day one. The installation was easy. More time was spent modifying the grill insert than installing the actual product. I bought a cheap heavy duty rivet tool and used the rivets included in the set. Keying the lock to my key was quick and the lock works without issue every time. The protective weather cap is functional and does not fall off. This is on par with OEM quality.

Easy install, safe jeep. Greets from Poland.

Solid product that definitely adds security to your JK. I feel confident that this will deter most would-be thieves, and would take serious effort (and probably damage to other components) to circumvent or remove it. Other reviews stated that they substituted the 1/4" rivets for screws due to not having a large enough rivet gun (it will require a HD rivet gun), I did install it using the (4) 1/4" rivets and it is rock solid and effective, exactly as advertised. Install was straight forward and everything lined up perfectly. I feel fully confident that I can add an under hood air compressor or other accessories without worry. An added plus is that Bolt makes the OEM MOPAR hood lock, so this isn't a cheap knock-off. Solid, simple and effective product that is worth the $.

works great!

Easy install and I am female @ 5ft tall. Bought Atlas 1426 Rivet tool, adjusted collet (clockwise), and good-to-go! Secure and heavy duty. Gives me peace of mind when parked at trail head for backpacking trips.
