Review on Oritech Hood Lock Engine Hood Buckles Kit Latches for Jeep Wrangler JK 2007-2017, Zinc Alloy Compatible with 2008-2016 Models by Daniel Fung

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good for the money but I'm sure there are better ones out there

They are easy to install if you have the right tools. They look good and are quite durable. The disadvantage is that the bolt is not long enough to shorten or lengthen the fastener. It says "at least 3 threads to stay safe" (or something like that). The passenger side was fine, when I did the driver's side I adjusted everything correctly and tightened the post nuts and it started pulling the strings from underneath. I tightened the bottom a few more turns and loosened the top a few more turns. We'll see how they hold up, for $65 I think the product will be of decent quality compared to other cheaper products. The bolt lock has left and right hand threads (the actual lanyard) so you don't have to unscrew it to lengthen or shorten the bolt.

Pros
  • hands free
Cons
  • speed
