Just a heads up....
I had what I believe is a mechanical failure of an electronic Pop & Lock recently. It has given me great service and security for some 5 years, so no product complaints from me!
One thing to be aware of...when the tailgate lock fails to open (mine is making a loud buzzing only) the tailgate latches (both) become inoperable (locked). You cannot access your trunk with tools, spare tire, jack, etc.
Pop & Lock does make a manual/electronic lock that offers a key over-ride which I will be upgrading to AS SOON AS I FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET THE INSIDE TAILGATE COVER OFF to R+R the Pop & Lock. The inner tailgate cover does not come off when the tailgate is closed/locked.
This is going to be an issue for Pop & Lock users with dead batteries too.
