Re: Show off your real live car and carmods
yeah i have locking toolbox on my clunker i leave in parking lot at work, and bedcovers on my other 2 trucks to keep prying eyes and sticky fingers out, as the tailgates both lock it keeps the cover from being opened without first unlocking the tailgate, or completely demolishing the bedcover.
