Perfect fit for 2020 Nissan Frontier Crew Cab

Fits and works perfectly. Connections are made on the passenger side of the B-pillar, so pressing the release button twice opens the rear door along with all three other doors. Very comfortable, excellent value for money. Everything you need is included. The installation took about 2 hours, most of which was spent running the wiring to the frame and to the B-pillar.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Almost never

Great addition to my Frontier

I wanted the tailgate to latch when I locked my truck. Read a lot about this product before you buy it. It's worth it. Installing the device in the back door is quite simple. Pulling the cable into the cabin is a bit more difficult. An elevator would be easier. Worn wire connector located behind the pillar between the front and rear doors. Skin removal is required. In general it works very well. Loud when turned on. However, this does not violate the terms of the contract.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Volume

Read this review for proper wiring!

Alright everyone if you buy this don't forget to come back to this post on the wiring. As with most others, the directions don't seem to be accurate. I connected to the driver's side, installed through the sleeve. Pay attention. They connect to the GRAY and PURPLE wires of the lower brown wire harness. Keeping everything else the same, set blue to purple and green to gray so you don't have to swap the rear panel connectors. Installed on a 2012 Nissan Frontier Double Cab. Welcome to the…

Pros
  • Quality build
Cons
  • Speed

Excellent fit and finish.

Very well built for the price, time will tell how long the drive will last. Easy to install, no adjustments or modifications, just screw on and route the wire. I chose the factory seat belt and hooked it to the driver's tailgate. I'm not a fan of scotch locks but chose them as it's in a very dry safe area and the wires are well protected from vibration. It's noisier than other locks, especially when locking, but I think a lot of it is hollow tailgate with no soundproofing. I can add some…

  • Easy to use

Frontier 2019 for Tailgate Locks

After watching a YouTube video of a guy installing this for 2019 I bought it. Lock and lock works for 2006-2013 Nissan Frontier 2019. I installed the locking mechanism in 30 minutes and have yet to wire the wire to the cabin. I haven't decided yet if I'm going to do the rear passenger door or the driver's door in the video, he did it on the rear passenger door and I was just concerned about attaching the cable from the back of the truck to the cab. Thanks to the YouTube video the installation…

Pros
  • Easy Install
Cons
  • Protection

Highly recommended!

Works fine. Nissan should have provided this feature from the factory! The noise when locking is very loud, but it's okay, the main thing is that it prevents my suitcase from being stolen! The hardest part of the installation is getting the cables into the cab of the truck. I drilled a hole in the back of the body, which allowed me to run electrical wires through the floor of the truck cab. Schematics for the Frontier can be found on the online Nissan forums. I downloaded the factory manual and

Pros
  • Handy thing
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Great product - worth the price for the quality and easy installation

Great product! Looks like a solid and reliable product. Quality is evident from solid stainless steel components, CE marked actuator and all wiring harnesses. Could I make it cheaper by using regular actuators and making my own connections? Possibly, but it seemed like a big project with no guarantee of success. I liked that everything came as a kit with ready-to-install components made specifically for Frontier. For this reason the price was worth it. I installed this on my 2019 Nissan…

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

As others have said, this should be standard from the factory.

I installed this on my 2019 Frontier cab. My truck has a hard trunk lid and I often use the tailgate lock. Installing the device itself is very easy; with wiring more pain, but not so bad. I clung to the wiring harness on the passenger side center pillar. Blue wire from Pop&Lock wire connected to light purple wire on B-pillar wiring harness; the green wire of the Pop&Lock cable that connects to the blue wire of the B-pillar wiring harness. The Pop&Lock box says it fits 2007 thru 2013 models…

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Not the best
