Rugged Ridge makes hood locks for $15-$25 depending on site. If looking for new hood latches to seal hood better, Daystar is the way to go.

Is this the one you are referring to? It has really bad reviews though. Do you have one of these?

I don't have one, but I know people who do and never heard bad things about it. I would ask on here for remarks about it.

That's the one btw..
