    Not my invention. Found this $25 metal powder coated device online, tried it and liked it. Just sharing my find with fellow TW members.

    The same guy also makes a cool washer for preventing the tailgate cable from being slipped off by anyone. Fits great and was easy to install.

    Not sure how this relate to the title of the thread, probably better to plaster in the Mods and Tutorial Thread.

    I bought a Lowes-bought wide fender washer and installed it over the cable-end. $1.50 I think. Unless the screw is replaced by something with a security-no-one-else-has-it headed-screw, it just slows people down as much as mine with the standard Torx head, my guess.

    But anything to expand 20 seconds to "something longer" helps.
