Default Anyone?
Anyone have a tailgate lock on their truck? Pop & Lock or another brand? Likes and dislikes please.

I need to get one for when I get the tonneau and am curious if one is better than the other, et cetera.

Thanks.

my 4th gen came with a locking tailgate. I'm happy it does because of the bakflip

That's why I'm looking at tailgate locks...I'm getting a Bakflip F1 cover on Saturday.

Which Bakflip do you have?

I have the HD. I like it but it will get damage from hail if you have it around you. I had about quarter size hail storm I had to drive thru and I got pock marks on it. Its not to bad but I know its there. THough it was a good investment. I wanted something that will last and was flush mounted

The one I am suppose to get is an F1, which is a fiberglass compound and BAK Industries states it will not dent or ding. Hopefully they are correct.

Do you have the rail caps too?

i put the bully dog one off of ebay on my 05. i think it was less then 30.00 shipped but that was 4 years ago. it worked and fit great. sad thing is i forgot to give them the keys when i traded it in. oopsie

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/02-03...#ht_3443wt_941

it was really easy to install. using a drill with the torx head will make it go substantially faster
