K I had my truck sort of broken into last month... they went through the camper shell and lifted it far enough for the gate to come down... the locks on the shell are just 2 metal pieces... I need to get pics up here... if I remember how... ha ha... so anyway I ordered the pop lock and this POS won't lock anything... no matter what I modified it would pop open with ease... so I sent that back and got refunded... don't waste your time or money on it... I made up my own simple solution... just reinforced the shell locks and put a dead bolt inside the tail gate... ha ha... all together cost me 5 dollars... I'm putting up pics soon... had to get a new phone and can't remember the photobucket account...

Ok first the shell locks... if you look closly you see just the thin strip... I drilled a couple of holes and put some stock right there to keep it from being pulled and bent again...

Oh yes he tried getting into the back wondow which to small for anyone to fit through... and the only thing he would have gotten was a work shirt... ha ha... but while shaking the cab he set off my alarm and he got scared and took off... he was gone by the time I got down stairs... but the idiot left his 80 dollar bottle of cologne inside his dirt bike helmet... so I got me free cologne and sold his helmet on craigslist for 40 dollars... ha ha...I don't know what he was trying to get... but he passed the whole socket set inside the bed... idiot...
