Reviews for DV8 Offroad D-JP-190021-LK Locking Hood Hold Downs for 97-06 Jeep Wrangler TJ & Unlimited

They look very professional

The hold downs were very easy to install, they do a great job keeping the hood from fluttering while on the highway and even on windy days. They have been holding up very nicely after several months of use definitely worth the buy.

Easy to install, look sharp on Jeep.

They do exactly what they are supposed to. Metal parts seem strong and sturdy. Plastic parts feel solid and not cheap. Easy install. Keys are small so I worry Ill lose them but that is my problem!

Pros: Very Rugged, Easy to Install, Provides a Great Look + Security.
Cons: Non...except for the fact that my Locking Hood Hold Downs didn't come with instructions. After watching a video on YouTube, I was able to install both in approximately 20 minutes.
Highly Recommend.

Outstanding product

I love these hood hold downs. It took about 15 minutes to install and went into the existing holes. No more hood flutter and the locks insure my battery will be there in the morning when I stay in a hotel. Quadratec had them to me in two days.

I love this item. It was easy to install. I did have to do a little filing, to get adequate clearance to re-connect the turnbuckle, but that only took about 5 minutes.
I recommend this product.

After having these on my Jeep for a year one lock was stuck and the key broke off, after some time with a paper clip finally got the broken part of the key out of the lock. Cleaned the lock pin up and had to be very careful when unlocking it. My daughter broke the next key. I called Drake up and was told that they had a problem with the keys and the locks and changed vendors, that they would send me a replacement set. That was at the end of October, then I called back after Christmas to see if they were still sending them, the person I was talking assure me they were and that they had just gotten them. Called again on the last day of January and Customer Service acted like we never said that and wanted to know who I talked to and then transferred me to someone else who never called back. Yes they look good but are junk! Drake does not stand behind their product. I will never buy their stuff again.
