Does anyone know such lockable locks from the aftermarket?
I don't want that anyone is able to get into the engine bay like that...

Are you recommending these from you using them or plucked from the internet ?
I recommend them. I have had them since I picked up my Jeep 3 years ago. They have survived routine service shops, and NYC winters. There is the bolt hood lock as well. Do a forum search, lots of good info on that one. Depends on what you want/need I guess.

Good luck!

I like the looks of those. One quick question, is the lower screw just a standard sized torx/philips head that can be removed instead of the locked end?

I love the bolt products. Uses the factory key. I’d have their hood lock but I have the front trail camera so I can’t install it. I do use their hitch pin locks and trailer hasp lock. I also have one of their padlocks and steel braided cable to help secure my trailer spare tire to my trailer. It’s nice not having to carry all the extra keys.

I had the hood latch lock. When I went to the dealer he never unlocked the latch and it opened as if I had nothing there! I then installed the mopar hood lock and it worked perfectly!

The Bolt hood lock is great, you don't need extra keys, and seems like it'd be better protection than the latches (?). However, one thing to note: the hood lock sits in the grill where a trail cam would ordinarily go. I was considering adding the Z Automotive trail cam, but Quadratec customer service told me you can't put the camera above or below it (maybe it would have to do with angles of how the camera is pointed? I haven't confirmed or looked into this more)
