heys guys have any of you guys used hood locks before? i bought a set from spectre. first day in and they broke! one of the locking pins broke off and the securing bolt is bent and ready to break. have any of you guys used any of these locks? if so what kind and how good were they? or what have you guys used to lock the hood in place? i was wondering where i can find a hood lock with a cable, the ones where you have to push to lock it and pull on the inside of the cab to unlock. i really need to have a good lock, because anyone can come and steal my stuff especially with the hood latch under the bumber.....:(

I put in hood locks that I ordered from JC Whitney for $19.95 about 4 years ago. I've never had any problems, they have always worked fine.
