Tricky lower nut removal and install
Took a bit to get the lower nuts (inside the fenders behind lights) off and new ones back on. Other than that it was an easy install. The following applies to JKs (ours is a 2016) but may apply to the JLs (I don't know because I don't have one). You have to remove the air box and the coolant overflow reservoir to get to the passenger side latch. There are some videos on YouTube that cover it. The one I saw was OK but the guy did the removal in high speed with no explanation. Most of it is obvious but getting the lower part of the air box out is a bit puzzling. It is just snapped in with three posts. If you wiggle it and pull up at the same time it will come out fairly easily. After that you have to be able to get to the nut to get it off. A universal joint for your ratchet or driver is helpful on the passenger side and almost essential on the driver side, unless you want to remove the computer and some other stuff. Getting the nut off is not that big of a problem because, if you drop it it's no great loss (it doesn't get reused). Putting the new one on is a bit trickier - I used the Fab Rats trick of putting a piece of paper towel over the socket and then shoving the nut into the socket to get it started (I'm sure this is an old trick but I first saw it on Fab Rats on YouTube). The upper latch is super easy.The latch works great once installed. You can adjust it by moving the upper latch up or down. Even adjusted to it's loosest setting it is still tight. The only thing I would like to see on this latch is some sort of grip extension for the lower latch. It is difficult to get a grip on it to open it but, since I don't pop the hood open very often, that's not that big of a deal. I like the barrel keys since they are a bit more robust than a flat key.

Works like they should
They were slightly tricky to install, but not hard. Fit well and kept people from messing with the hood of the jeep. Worth the money. The function like they should and havr been using for a few months would any issues.

Sturdy product, challanging to install if you dont have the right tools
It looks sturdy, elegant and matches my vehicle. A 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe.Note that no tools are provided and good luck if you don't have the right tools. I have a lot of tools but i didnt carry a spanners / wrench. Both to remove and add this, you will need a spanner / wrench as the space is very tight and no driver or socket will fit in to remove or fit it. Also, you will also definitely need an Allen key set to make sure it is tightened correctly.Now the lock is very simple plate. Given it locks down, I am hoping the vibrations from the vehicle wont unlock it accidentally and gravity will keep it that way! Not sure if it is stainless steel or plated. If its plated, good luck with it surviving the northwest conditions. Time will tell.For the manufacturers, add a couple of tools and provide that as another option so folks can but that if need be.

I loved it, Update
The media could not be loaded. Yes it is metal and it feels strong. Way better than the (OEM) fur sure, all good after 30+ days of use. I adjust it tide so no vibrations. My car is parked underground so no rust yet, but even if it does I can just take it and spray. Another reason to work on my jeep lol. After 3+ months of use, I got another one for my other jeep. I absolutely love this product.

Funciona
Compré otras que se parecían más a las originales pero no servían para nada pero la cambié por estas y si mantiene la seguridad aunque la llave no sea de alta seguridad funciona mejor que nada

Excelente precio-valor
Hasta ahorita muy bien, las acabo de instalar.La verdad es que esta un poco complicado la instalacion pero por temas del jeep. Afortunadamente con mi herramienta basically pude hacerlo. Recomiendo una llave de dados que ayudar mucho con la parte inferior.Veamos en unos días como va. Actualizare este post en unas semanas.
