    I don't need it, by the way. I just thought it was darn spiffy. Of course, if you send it my way I'll probably get it to Alox or Nak.

    I have seen them used. They are pretty nice. I put a handle lock on my 02 when I had it so no one could open the gate to steal it. Plus, it had the ARE lid that went over the gate, that locked also. They would have had to break the lid and the lock to get the gate. I have used the mcgard wheel locks in the past and never had any issues.

    Have a Pop-N-Lock on my '10 with a tonneau cover, so it is good but not worth the money they charge, OEM would be better. Need to do something on my son's '12 2500 as mhe has it open all the time and was looking at this particular device. Seems it would be a good fit to the problem as he cannot put a tonneau cover on over his welder and rest of the equipment. I would be interested to know if anyone with one's review.

    This company is in Orchard Park, NY An ex's daughter works there. They're bread and butter I believe are locking lug nuts. But they obviously make other things. My gf makes the plastic holders and other plastic pieces at her work for Mcgard. Dont know much else about them.
