I’ll bite

 

Close, but it is this:

Still cheaper than a tailgate!

 

Or deductable

 

So reading that other post he says it takes 20 seconds to install. That means it takes 20 seconds to remove. If someone wants your tailgate they are going to get it. Doesn't matter what you install.

 

Only if the thief is carrying the proper tool,
Nothing is fail safe, they are not gonna fidget around for 20 seconds when they can steal your neighbors in 5 seconds

 

No I do not

 

You can change out the screw head to something other than the torx

 

That's a good idea.

 

Or weld it on, lol

 

Install in 20sec.
Drill out torx head so torx bit no longer fits.






Simple problems require simple solutions

 

How would you remove the tailgate if needed? Like from an accident?

 

Put on your crossfit shoes, it's time for the cult to speak their mind on the issue of how shifting makes their arm fat jiggle. There's also the issue of no driver grab handle because weak core is what happens in zero gains crossfit. I shift gears backed with Camry thunder and yoddle on about this manual trans is the new anti-theft device. Well it's in a third gen and that's the anti-theft device. It's like dating a fat chick no one is interested in stealing it.

 

I plan on using these for my ditch lights.

 

Wouldn't a vice grip defeat that?

 

I don't think so. Depends on how steep the slope is. Vice grips can suck at angles.

 

I have this on my truck and I feel more secure with it on. I know I had to buy my torx set separately as they are not usually included in tool sets.

 

Ah, a valid point good sir. This would require sometime like 1,200sec for me to use tools the average thief isnt carrying around to remove it. Tools such as a cutting wheel, or welding a bolt onto the top of the drilled out bit and then removing it using that bolt head.
