"You actually have to *break* your factory hood latches in order to install these. They still required more force than the factory latches, but no heating or anything was required."
"It's a good choice of quality material for this purpose, but the dimensions are a bit short, making the latches difficult to close."
"There is no way my wife would be able to latch the hood with these."
"When you put in both screws and bolts and are ready to close the hood, it is very tight and feels like your gonna snap your factory mounts."
"However, there is another review here that describes using a knife to cut the old ones and pliers to break the plastic covering of the stock one."
"They have done an amazing job at eliminating the hood flutter at high speeds on the interstate."
"Ordered the product for my 2015 JK."

"I filed down one side of a washer for both sides just a little and everything fit perfect."
"Keeps my hood securely latched, and the in the Texas breeze, that means a lot when zipping down the toll road at 80 MPH."
"I was a little leary of purchasing them because of reviews but let me assure anyone they are good quaility, fairly easy to install, adjustment was simple."
"When you latch the hood it is best to position each latch and make the final closure simultaneously. If you don't it is possible that the hood could be closed with the latches in the way, which will result in instant damage to your hood."
"Would have been 5 stars if there wa a bit more adjustment in the latch to allow a larger gap between the hood and fender. When the alignments were complete, I noticed that when it was latched it pulled the hood down so far that there was metal to metal contact with the fender / hood."
"Really need these as I didn't like the idea of someone being able to just left my hood if they wanted too."
"My old hood wranglers were pretty worn out and I really didn't want to replace them with another st so I ordered these and I'm SO glad I dd."

After some experimentation, I found that one end is a catch cap and you can just apply pressure to it and it will break loss. You have to remove some of the screws from the front of the inner fender, it will give you a little working space."
"I contacted Rugged Ridge customer support and after several days of going back and forth with emails and proof that I bought this from Amazon with pictures they sent me 2 new safety catches.. For anyone reading this, to reduce the risk of your safety catches breaking, I took my small butane torch and heated the plastic catch in a vise, then bent them down about 1/16", then trimmed the end back with a grinder."
"Mounting the new one is even harder.. Quality seems good and it looks and works great."
"I found out after I purchased these latches that they reportedly did not work on the power dome hood that comes on the 2013 and 2014 X models. I'll admit they are a bit tight and the latches do come close to rubbing against the hood once latched closed. I'm happy and they look vicious on the power dome hood."
"These are a quality hood latch that is extremely easy to install, especially if you are also installing new headlights at the same time."
"I would say I would buy again, however that wont be needed, good quality lasts a lifetime!"
"It took some work to get them installed, we ended up having to take apart the grill and remove the headlight to get to the place where you remove the old latches and install the new one."

"This is an excellent addition to the jeep and fairly simple to install .."
"Once installed, effortless, and still able to disconnect easily when you need to push the hood all the way back."
"But, if you are used to using normal tools like socket wrenches and are decent at visualizing an installation, you will be fine."
"The ones they send are for an old, outdated kit with less than half the parts in the current kit."
"I only had 2 issues with the install on my 2014 Wrangler Unlimited: 1st getting the mounting bracket inside the hood is very tricky."
"Just be careful when installing the top bracket to the hood!"
"NOTE: Be very careful when installing the brackets that slide inside the hood framing... if one of those pieces were to come of the machine screw you are using as a handle, it would slide down inside the hood framing and I don't see any way you could retrieve it."
