Seven Sparta Hood Latches Aluminum Hood Catch Compatible with Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU 2007-2017, JL/JLU 2018-2022 & Jeep Gladiator 2020-2022, 1 Pair (American Flag)

These good latches look great on my red 2008 JK Rubicon. Not only are they nice looking but they also did away with the hood shutter that I was getting from the wind.

These latches are VERY high quality. Much better than I thought I was going to get. I own a 2012 2dr Sahara. If you own one too, be prepared for the battle of your life getting the old ones off. There is little to no room to fit your hand in there. Pro tip:remove the wheel well liner and come in from the bottom. That will save you some time. Of course all that has nothing to do with these latches, but just fair warning, they are a real PITA to get off.

These latches are well made and look great. And the hood doesnt pop every time a Peterbilt passes on a 2 lane highway. The only thing I would advise a Jeep owner is these do not give, they are solid. If you are an avid off-road enthusiasts I would think about the fact these latches have no elasticity to allow flexing in extreme condition.

Easy to install, had to do a little adjustment

Nice upgrade for the JK.

I loved the look of these latches for the price. However, one of the screws that holds the bushing in place came loose, and with it the latch on that side. (Hood flutter). If I could just replace the hex socket screw I would be a happy camper. Next time I will use Loctite. IF not for this nuisance, this would be a 5/5 easily.
