Re: locking hood?

Agreed, there would have to be a cable hidden to open the hood when using a popper.
Lots to think about on this one.

I've got an old tube style grill in my truck that I can barely get my fingers through and that would keep the sneaky Petes looking to grab goodies quick out.

A guy could make it solenoid operated but then it wouldn't work w/o electricity if the battery was dead.

Food for thought on designing something.
