Default Rampage hood latches
Just wondering if anyone is using the rampage hood latches/locks. I was wondering if they will stop my hood bounce.

A couple zip ties will do that at very little cost.

Daystar's work great, and are a fraction of the cost of the Drakes. I really like the looks of the Drake, but the cost is prohibitive for the solution to the problem.

I saw them at quadratec. I like the look of them and the fact that they are metal and lockable. Just wondering if anyone was using them yet. My hood is bouncing like crazy even my wife said it was bad and i needed to buy something to fix it. Ive never get the ok for jeeP parts.
