This turned out to not be the case. Sorry for the misinformation. I will edit my post.

I was told by RiverOaks Parts dept that MOPAR was releasing the hood locks in July...then that passed, then they quoted August 1st, then that passed...Now he heard they are gonna have them made for September 1st...so I'm going to wait. I'll post here again when/if I find out more information and the cost...he told me he was gonna do some research this week and for me to hit him up to check.

I feel your sarcasm S or J.

"Gee thanks for paying me interest on my money in your discount that you're holding on to, earning interest on yourself, until said vaporware makes its way to market at some future unknown date, whose delivery notoriously gets moved further into the future the further into the future we travel."

Ordered from the parts counter the day after we bought the jeep. Parts guy is positive that number is for the JL and not the JK. He said estimated delivery mid Aug. He also stated that it was self keyed to the fob key when installed, sweet!

got it, thanks for the update! Has anyone see/heard how this will look and how they've addressed the grille inserts? With the JK you could just add the lock and access it since there were no inserts, wondering if this will include a special center insert with a cutout for the lock?

I’ve looked into it and haven’t found anything. I also wondered if it will attach with rivets like the jk mount.

Still vaporware. A discouraging fact regarding this lock kit is that months ago you could do a search of its part number (82215137) on the official Mopar web store (moparstore.com) and its description would come up stating it was not yet available. If you do a search of that part number now, it comes back stating "No Results." I don't see its removal from the parts list as a positive development.

Too bad. Is it possible to replace the whole hood with an internal lock like what normal car does?

I have no idea, but boltlock.com has been developing a center lock for the JL hood similar to the one they currently offer for the JK.
