    I have a 2015 tacoma double cab trd offroad short bed. I just ordered a bakflip g2 bed cover and now I need to get my tailgate to lock. I don't want the one that has the button and you have to run wires for, I just want a manual one with a key. I also have factory back up camera. What is my best options? Thank you

    The Pop and Lock is a great choice. I've had them on both of my tacos. They're easy to install and they work with your truck key. Some people say they feel cheap but I haven't had any problems with it

    I have a manual pop lock with the rear camera cut out. easy install, works great, you can key it to your ignition key and even if the bad guys break in the cab, they cant get in the bed unless they jimmy the lock or have a copy of the key which is why I went for the manual and not powered.
