Slightly disappointed with this product mainly because of the price. I was expecting better and higher security for the lock offered by Kurt. The key does not lock or unlock this device. The key is designed to be used by inserting it into the slot on the cover. Turn the wrench counterclockwise several times to unthread the cap from the cross member. Attach and secure the cap to the crossbar in a clockwise direction. Most likely the hood, I could insert a screwdriver to make the same twisting motion. That acts as a visual deterrent to me. Good for pivot point on king pin edge. I plan to buy another one in the near future.
